Nursing Care at Home
Tracheostomy care at home in Kanpur
Nurses to look after a new or long-term tracheostomy, helping keep the tube clear and the surrounding skin clean.
About this service
A tracheostomy is an opening in the neck that lets a patient breathe through a tube. Air that goes through the tube bypasses the nose and mouth, which normally warm, moisten and filter what we breathe. That is why the tube needs regular care: mucus can collect, the skin can become sore, and there is a higher risk of infection.
With a new tracheostomy, the tube may need to be suctioned and cleaned as often as every one to two hours. Once the initial inflammation settles, care may be needed only once or twice a day, depending on the patient. We arrange nurses in Kanpur who can carry out this routine at home, following the instructions of the doctor who placed the tube.
