UK Children on Long Term Ventilation (LTV)

Welcome

This site is intended for the benefit of families and health professionals involved in the care of children and adolescents who need long term mechanical ventilation.


By sharing information, this website aims to help such children and young people to move out of hospital into an environment more suited to long term care and rehabilitation - at home, if at all possible. 

The site has been running for some years but is updated regularly.

Please feel free to contact stuart.rowe@nhs.net with any comments you may have for improving the appearance and content on the site
