Sometimes kids have trouble breathing on their own through their nose or mouth. They may need breathing support through a tracheostomy tube or a home ventilator.

Caring for a child with a tracheostomy tube or home ventilator requires special skills from a pediatric team of experts.

The Children's Wisconsin Tracheostomy and Home Ventilator Program is the top program in the region. We support parents and caregivers and help kids who can’t breathe on their own get the care they need.
