My mother is in a long term actue care facility in Texas. She has had a tracheotomy, and currently is in the weaning process. Currently, she is using a trach collar during most of the day and usually, bipap at night. The doctors don't seem to be very hopeful of her totally coming off of some type of mechanical breathing.

I live in Denver, Colorado, and my brother lives in Las Vegas, Nevada. We are currently looking for a long term care facility that can handle a vent patient. I found a list of Texas facilities in another post here at the forum, but was wondering if anyone knew of facilities in Colorado or Nevada?

Thanks for the help,

CBedo
