What does home respiratory care involve?
My mother has been advised to have around-the-clock home respiratory care for her emphysema. What does it involve and what precautions should be taken?

Breathing treatments, inhalers, cpt, medication,etc.
Respiratory therapist will evaluate her and if needed will perform chest therapy and suction. They will help with fluid in the lung stay at a minimum and do lung exercises to help keep lungs strong. PPE is used by the RT due to covid
