Respiratory Therapy Editing and Proofreading Services

Respiratory therapy writing sits at two extremes at once. Ventilator protocols and weaning documentation are among the most technical writing in the hospital, read by clinicians who need parameters and thresholds. Inhaler technique instructions are among the simplest, read by a patient who will get them wrong in a way that quietly makes their medication useless. The same department produces both, and the second is where most preventable harm sits.

We edit what respiratory services produce — mechanical ventilation and weaning protocols, non-invasive ventilation and high-flow therapy guidelines, oxygen therapy prescribing and home oxygen assessment documentation, tracheostomy care and emergency airway procedures, inhaler and spacer technique instructions, pulmonary rehabilitation programme material, COPD and asthma action plans, sleep and home ventilation documentation, arterial blood gas interpretation guidance, equipment cleaning and infection control procedures, and competency and training material. Our editors check that every threshold triggering an action is stated as a number and that device instructions are written as physical steps.

Inhaler instructions repay rewriting more than almost any document in respiratory medicine. A large share of patients use their device incorrectly, which means their treatment is not reaching their lungs at all — and the instructions they were given usually described the medication rather than the movement. We write these as bodily actions in sequence, name the errors people actually make, and include what to do if a step goes wrong, because the failure is mechanical rather than motivational.

Everything you send is treated confidentially. Whether you are a department rewriting ventilator weaning protocols, a service producing action plans that patients can follow during an exacerbation, or a therapist preparing education or research writing, we can make each document right for the pressure it will be read under.
