Tracheostomy Care At Home
What is Tracheostomy Care?
A tracheostomy is a surgically created opening in the trachea that allows direct access to the airway for breathing. It is often required for individuals with respiratory failure, neurological conditions, prolonged ventilation needs, or airway obstructions. Proper tracheostomy care is essential to prevent infections, maintain airway patency, and promote overall respiratory health.
Types of Tracheostomy Care
Daily Airway Maintenance – Ensuring the tracheostomy tube remains clear of mucus and obstructions to facilitate proper breathing.
Suctioning & Secretion Management – Removing excess secretions to prevent blockages and maintain optimal oxygen levels.
Tracheostomy Tube Changes & Cleaning – Regularly replacing and sanitizing the tracheostomy tube to reduce infection risk.
Monitoring for Complications – Observing for redness, swelling, unusual discharge, or difficulty breathing that may require medical intervention.
Humidification & Hydration Support – Preventing dryness and irritation by ensuring adequate moisture levels in the airway.
Emergency Preparedness – Providing immediate intervention in case of accidental tube displacement, blockages, or respiratory distress.
Helpful Tips for Loved Ones Handling Tracheostomy Care
Maintain a Clean and Sterile Environment – Always wash hands and use sterilized equipment when performing tracheostomy care to reduce infection risks.
Monitor Breathing Patterns – Keep track of changes in breathing, excessive mucus buildup, or signs of distress that may indicate the need for medical attention.
Have Emergency Supplies Ready – Keep spare tracheostomy tubes, suction equipment, and emergency instructions readily available in case of unexpected complications.

Professional Organizers, Estate Clearing, Move Managers
As an estate planning attorney, I see families struggle with just the thought of looking into the possibilities, but I know that the minute they contact the compassionate, professional, and trustworthy team at Legacy Homecare LA, they will be in the best of hands.
From the CEO Jason to Alyssa and Kurt and Zehra, you will find people dedicated to creating an individualized plan that is as unique as your loved one. And little extra thing I love about talking with anyone on this team, if they do not think their services or even in home care is right for your situation, they will tell you and provide you with the resources you will need to find exactly the type of care your loved one deserves. Even a
short conversation or consultation with them will give you more clarity and confidence than hours spent searching the internet.
It’s been a pleasure to get to know them and to see that they bring the same love and kindness they share with their families to their clients.
