The diagram below illustrates the possible care pathways a long-term ventilation (LTV) patient may follow across the LTV continuum: from acute care, to inpatient complex care and rehabilitation, and into the community. This model reflects the vision of the Provincial Long-Term Ventilation Strategy (PLTVS) for LTV care in Ontario: a coordinated, patient-centred system that ensures timely, appropriate care at every stage.
