We also provide services to the ICU in the National Center of Infectious Diseases. Our therapists work around the clock with the ICU team to cater to the respiratory and emergency requirements of patients. Respiratory Therapists are the frontline medical professionals responding to national emergencies and pandemics. Working closely with the Home Ventilator Service team, we also provide ongoing care to ventilator dependent patients.​
