American Breath of Life

The U. S. health care system is in total shambles. It’s reform bill is obnoxious, it over bills the clients/ patients, and it’s too costly to the public/employees. Stat’s reveal many cut backs on governmental medical assisted care, and disability care, etc. Many of our nation’s employees can no longer to even have payroll deducted healthcare, and many of the employers can no longer afford to even offer health insurance to its employees. Whether we know it or not there are still many of our nation’s children whom are medically bed-ridden or too disable to attend most day cares, rendering them hopeless on receiving day care assistance so that their parents can go out and get a much needed job, in order to get out of their fixed income situations. The service I would like to provide is an 501-c-3 Non-Profit Corporation Organizational public service called American Breath of Life. This non-profit corporation will provide an hospital (nursing setting type) of child care facility that will service children with a vast of disabilities, but having respiratory as their common problem. These respiratory disabled children will have a concentration of breathing problems such as cystic fibrosis, severe asthmatics, ventilator dependent, kidney and blood pressure problems, circulatory problems, possible mental retardation problems, etc. At American Breath of Life all of their medical care, child care, and to a very large degree their educational care will be served by a highly qualified licensed medical staff of all categories, plus dieticians, teachers, teachers aides, medical assisted aides, etc. There will be an implemented parent, client (child), medical team, facilitating staff team review, ethics, policy and procedures committee that will meet quarterly to discuss the client (child) overall care, progressions, complaints, and other interests. The governmental services have been looking for this service to be implemented in a vastly service for awhile. I intend to initiate my thorough research of the subject and of it public service to the soon. Vonnie Hill

  1. Vonnie,
    Very intriguing topic, good for you for picking a specific healthcare need. The entire issue of healthcare is so large and complicated that I think we are getting grid locked and therefore not accomplishing anything that will do anyone any good. You sound passionate about it. Is this an issue with which you have personal experience? A nosy question perhaps but I was wondering how you chose your focus. I look forward to reading more.
    Very best,
