What We Do
Situated within the Long Term Ventilation (LTV) unit, the Enhanced Living Service (ELS) features a more home-like setting to accommodate six current patients with issues requiring Long Term Ventilation.
The ELS space includes a communal family room and a kitchen area for entertainment and meal preparation.
The comfort of a warmer, less clinical environment is bolstered by the care that Client Care Attendant staff provide 24/7 from an adjacent workstation. Patients are also able to direct their own care and the service enables patients to transition back to the community.
Eligibility Criteria
Patients of West Park's Enhanced Living Service are adults (18 years of age and older) who:
- Require invasive ventilatory support due to chronic ventilatory failure
- Are non-smokers
- Are medically stable and no longer require continuous cardio-respiratory monitoring and/or central venous access.
Costs
The cost of medical and professional care in standard private accommodation is covered for patients with a valid Ontario Health Card issued by the
Ministry of Health.
The Ministry of Health requires an additional daily complex continuing care co-payment, which is subject to change (a 30-day notice of increases will be provided).
Additional information on fees charged are available from West Park's Financial Services Department at 416 243 3600, ext. 30610.
