An exoskeleton is a wearable, battery-powered device that fits like a brace around the legs, hips and waist to assist in standing and walking. The device prevents atrophy and allows the patient to walk while also helping the brain rebuild the necessary communication link to the legs. The technology within the exoskeleton enables the device to sense the support a patient needs and adjust accordingly. The exoskeleton provides full assistance for patients who need it and less for those further along in their recovery journey.

Did you know that our hospitals use an invisible solution during hygiene training? Our teams understand the importance of hand washing so we use a solution to help identify ways to improve technique. It is invisible to the naked eye and requires ultraviolet light to see. Through this approach, clinicians increase their knowledge and awareness of best handwashing practices. #HealthcareQualityWeek

Respiratory therapists care for patients with lung conditions. For Respiratory Care Week, we’re drawing attention to their techniques that help patients breathe better. Normal breathing occurs by inhaling through the nose and mouth. Depending on the condition, patients may require supplemental oxygen to breathe while others may have a tracheostomy tube (trach) surgically inserted into the trachea (windpipe). The trach is a more comfortable solution for long-term ventilator dependence. When a trach is in use, air enters and exits the body through the tracheostomy in the neck. If a ventilator is in use, the vent will control the amount of air received into the lungs and the minimum number of breaths. If a patient is having trouble talking, a speaking valve can be attached to a patient's trach. It allows air in through the trach but forces it out over the patient's vocal cords, allowing them to speak. #respiratorycareweek #respiratorytherapists #rcweek24
