Respiratory Program
Catalina Respiratory Therapy is very successful by partnering with families and providers to improve the quality of life for our respiratory residents. Catalina’s ventilators and oxygen are portable, allowing patients to enjoy many home-like activities. The modes of ventilation that we offer include CPAP, SIMV, AC, NIPPV, pressure control and volume control.
Dialysis
Catalina offers in-house bedside dialysis for patients unable to travel to outpatient dialysis due to weakness or other etiologies, and patients requiring artificial ventilation.
Wound Care
Catalina administers expert care to complex wounds including pressure ulcers, venous & arterial wounds, diabetic wounds, slow-healing surgical wounds, and those requiring wound vac therapies. Catalina works with some of the best wound doctors in southern Arizona.
