Clinical Outcomes

The numbers before the narrative.

Every metric is drawn from our internal patient registry, independently audited annually.

Outcome #1
94%

patients avoid hospital readmission within 90 days

The clinical protocol behind the number.

Every Breathe patient receives a structured 90-day transition protocol: RT home visit within 24 hours of discharge, equipment baseline calibration at day 3, and telemonitored overnight oximetry for the first two weeks. Our respiratory therapists flag saturation drift before it becomes a 911 call.

Outcomes tracked across 4,200+ patients · 2022–2025 internal registry

ICU beds don't wait. Neither do we.

Our logistics network maintains pre-staged ventilator kits in 38 states. When your discharge coordinator submits a referral before noon, our local RT team completes a home assessment, equipment delivery, and initial patient/caregiver training the same business day in most metro service areas.

average patient satisfaction score (Press Ganey)

Families remember how it felt to breathe easier.

Ventilator dependency changes everything about a household. Our RTs spend an average of 3.2 hours on the initial home visit — not rushing through setup, but teaching. Teaching the patient, the spouse, the adult child who drove four hours to be there. Confidence in equipment is clinical safety.

Based on 1,847 post-setup surveys · Q1 2025

Credentialed clinicians. Not delivery drivers.

Every equipment setup is performed by a licensed, credentialed Respiratory Therapist — not a contracted delivery service. Our RTs hold CRT or RRT credentials, maintain ACLS certification, and complete quarterly competency reviews on the specific ventilator platforms we service.
