What is Home Mechanical Ventilation?
We have developed a patient leaflet which can be accessed here and printed off by clinicians, patients, family members or carers. It provides information about HMV, what it is and who might benefit from it, and details resources to provide additional support.

About Us

HMViP (Home Mechanical Ventilation in Partnership) is a holistic collaboration of health care professionals working within the field of home mechanical ventilation (HMV). It benefits from representation from service users including patients and carers.

This website is dedicated to the memory of Ronnie Ward whose HMV treatment allowed him to spend the final four years of his life at home with his family.

This website has been developed using the expertise and experience of the healthcare professionals, patients and carers who make up the HMViP Group and was funded from a grant provided by ResMed UK Limited.
