Long Term Care facilities

Helping you reduce hospitalizations

VitalAire’s goal is to help you reduce the number of hospitalizations due to acute COPD exacerbations out of your long term care facility.

These hospitalizations are costly and highly unpleasant for residents, who become exposed to dangerous viral and bacterial infections at the hospital.

Long term oxygen therapy helps reduce hospitalization days by 38.5%, especially among COPD patients who begin their long term oxygen therapy as outpatients. ⁴

We carry all the leading oxygen delivery systems on the market, and have highly specialized staff, so we can find the solution that is right for your resident and your facility.

Regular visits to your facility

We often have multiple patients at each residential location, so we regularly visit your facility to follow-up on your patients’ oxygen therapy, supply oxygen equipment and accessories and provide support to your team when needed.

At the beginning of our collaboration we create a team specially dedicated to your facility - so you are always working with the same therapists and drivers. We notify you whenever one of them visits the facility.
