What a wonderful resource! In a valuable guide for caregivers, Cindy Bissell, an RN and the mother of a child with a tracheostomy helps sort through the confusion and the fear, by explaining every aspect of trach care in a step by step, easy to understand text.

The pictures are very precise and extremely helpful. This comprehensive guide is all-inclusive and covers the day-to-day care of the tracheostomy as well as any emergency situations that might come up.

This book is an excellent teaching device for caregivers, family members or anyone interested in tracheotomies. Written in basic non-medical terminology it breaks down the complex world of tracheostomies. Not only is this guide easy to understand, but also it is written with heart.

I highly recommend this book to anyone, including friends or family members of those who are facing a short-term or long-term tracheostomy. It also should be the first book read by medical students, student nurses, or anyone who wants to be informed about the care of pediatric tracheostomies.

It's a home based book so it is better than the hospital books. Easy to read and understand. It also can be used as a reference for when you need to just look some thing up. It's the best book that I have read about Tracheostomys!

This is a great guide for families, and nurses who are new to working with Trach children. I found it very informative. I feel it's also a good reference to keep throughout your healthcare career.
