Welcome to Aaron's Tracheostomy Page
This site is dedicated to my son Aaron who had a tracheostomy for the first 4 years of his life. I hope that Aaron's Page will be helpful to others caring for a child with a tracheostomy, or to anyone seeking to learn more about tracheostomies.

Mission
To help assure the highest quality home care for children with tracheostomies.
To provide needed tracheostomy information in order to ease some of the anxiety related to caring for a child with a trach. A well-informed family will usually experience less anxiety.
To facilitate parent-to-parent networking and support. Information is necessary for parents of medically challenged children, however what often helps parents most is knowing that they are not alone.
