Respiratory Care
Just as breathing is essential to life, breathing easily is essential to quality of life. That's why the experienced respiratory care team at Dupont Hospital is available 24/7. From advanced screenings or diagnostic work, to administering breathing treatments or caring for a related injury in our 24/7 ER, respiratory therapists are always here for you.
Caring for neonatal children, adults and seniors with a variety of respiratory challenges can involve advanced technology. But the Dupont Difference in respiratory care is the way we treat our guests: with compassion, respect and patience. Certainly we're proud of the technology and of the staff's experience, but the care our guests receive is what makes this a special place.
