Overview
About home respiratory therapy
If you have conditions that affect the way you breathe — like asthma, chronic bronchitis, compromised heart function, emphysema or obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) — you know the importance of every breath you take. And maybe the difficulty of getting respiratory therapy quickly and conveniently. But it may be easier than you think to manage your breathing health from the comfort of your own home.
Our team delivers cutting-edge technology throughout Northeast Ohio — right to your doorstep for either in-person or virtual instruction. We can help with the following (and more):
- Home oxygen.
- Nebulizers for respiratory treatment.
- Comprehensive CPAP (continuous positive airway pressure) and BiPAP (bilevel positive airway pressure) equipment, along with training.
You won’t have to go anywhere for this crucial care. We’ll bring respiratory equipment and supplies to you. Then, one of our respiratory therapists or a trained delivery specialist will teach you how to use the equipment safely and effectively. We also have more advanced technology available to help you keep your oxygen levels just right and to make sure your home is safe for oxygen use.
Insurance
Medicare, Medicaid and most private insurers cover most home respiratory therapy services. We’ll contact your insurer to determine your exact coverage.

Oxygen Services
Home Oxygen Services at Cleveland Clinic
Our team of highly trained delivery technicians is dedicated to delivering exceptional care and cutting-edge technology right to your doorstep, to make sure you receive the best respiratory care. And it’s comfortable and convenient.
Our services include:
- Home oxygen: We provide a wide range of oxygen therapies tailored to your specific needs, so you’ll get just the right amount of oxygen you need to breathe.
- Nebulizers for respiratory treatment: Nebulizers change liquid medicine into fine droplets (in aerosol or mist form) that you inhale through a mouthpiece or mask. Our advanced nebulizers deliver medications directly to your lungs to help manage respiratory conditions such as asthma and chronic bronchitis.
- Trach equipment care. Sometimes, you may need to have mucous removed from your trachea(windpipe), and we have the right equipment (large volume nebulizer and suction) to help.
At Cleveland Clinic, we make your well-being and convenience our priority. Our team will deliver respiratory equipment and supplies directly to your home, teach you how to use them correctly and provide ongoing support and adjustments.
If you have asthma, chronic bronchitis, compromised heart function, emphysema or other breathing problems, we can help you breathe easier and live a healthier life.
CPAP Therapy
CPAP Home Therapy Services
If you have obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), you know how it can leave you feeling tired and not like yourself. When you sleep, it isn’t always restful. You may snore, wake up frequently or sweat excessively. Our team provides effective and convenient CPAP therapy solutions. Our licensed respiratory therapists are committed to delivering exceptional care and advanced technology to you — so you can enjoy a good night’s sleep by managing your sleep apnea.
Our comprehensive CPAP therapy services include:
- CPAP equipment and supplies: We offer a wide range of CPAP machines, masks and accessories to meet your specific therapy needs and preferences.
- Comprehensive training: Our experienced therapists provide thorough training sessions to educate you on how to use and maintain CPAP equipment.
- Ongoing support: We’re here to provide continuous support and guidance throughout your CPAP therapy journey, addressing any concerns, adjustments or questions you may have. Respiratory therapists monitor your equipment for treatment efficiency.
- Advanced technology: We stay updated with the latest advancements in CPAP technology and offer innovative solutions to enhance your comfort during therapy and to make sure you’re keeping up with your required treatments. (Medicare refers to this as “compliance” — how much you use your CPAP. To be compliant, you must use your machine at least four hours each night for at least 70% of the time.)
- Supply ordering: We get your CPAP equipment and supplies quickly and efficiently by streamlining the ordering process. That means you get timely delivery, more convenient care and the certainty that you’ll have what you need.
At Cleveland Clinic’s Home Respiratory Department, we understand the importance of quality sleep and respiratory health. Our team will work closely with you so that you receive the best CPAP therapy experience — leading to improved sleep quality, daytime alertness and overall well-being.
Whether you’re newly diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea or seeking better management of your CPAP therapy, you can trust our team for exceptional care and support every step of the way. Breathe easier and sleep better with our CPAP therapy services.
