Healthcare institutions realized their level of exposure and this will continue to be challenge during and after Covid 19. An extremely limited number of respiratory therapists are available to assist the needs of our current patient population afflicted with respiratory diseases and in use of advance respiratory equipment concentrated in medical facilities (i.e BIPAPs, CPAPs, ventilators, oxygen devices, etc.). Furthermore, other clinical staff do not possess the expertise, knowledge and time to treat, admit, discharge or educate patients timely enough therefore delaying care, obstructing workflows and incurring in additional expenses and errors.
Further deterioration of a patient’s clinical condition, increased readmission rates, decreased customer satisfaction, increased staff frustration, loss in revenue or increased wait time and treatment cost due to poor bed utilization are some of the outcomes observed due to the lack of available respiratory care services. In addition, amplified payroll expenditures accompanied by decreased productivity or ability to admit or discharge patients with minimum notice are among other undesirable consequences of not including lung care professionals into your multidisciplinary team.
