Meeting today’s health care needs
Our post-pandemic future means some things will stay the same. Namely, patients will continue to seek out telehealth options, traveling less and staying home more because of effective home care. And as serious health conditions, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and obesity, that require respiratory aids continue to increase in the United States, along with a growing number of elderly patients, medical equipment has never been in higher demand.
From mobility assistance to airway management equipment, the many health challenges that patients and health systems face can be solved with a single solution for their equipment needs: Quipt Home Medical is there to help treat health issues with in-demand services.

As the need for respiratory equipment continues to grow, Quipt specializes in providing ventilators and breathing aids, such as CPAP machines to help sleep apnea patients. This increasingly common condition has increased as much as 70% over the past 25 years and continues to be a subject of research by the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke.
Obesity remains an underlying factor in the development of breathing disorders and as the epidemic continues its ascent in the United States, so does the number of patients in need of respiratory help. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, obesity and excess weight will continue to be a risk factor for severe illness from COVID-19, requiring breathing aids, such as emergency ventilators.
COPD is another rapidly growing health issue requiring oxygen therapy at home. Quipt Home Medical provides rental equipment — from BiPAP and CPAP machines to oxygen concentrators and ventilators — maintained to the highest quality standards.

Quipt’s flexible rental options enable patients to obtain equipment without any upfront investment. Quipt also does not require patients to secure the services of a respiratory therapist to obtain necessary equipment. The company also has the capability to provide ventilators for a wide range of facilities — from a 25-bed nursing home wing to any place that requires a ventilator on hand for emergencies.
Quipt’s flexibility is just another way this top respiratory health provider will continue meeting the needs of today’s customer.
