This program provides clinical care coordination and self-management support for metropolitan domiciliary oxygen clients, with advanced respiratory disease. Respiratory Liaison Nurses (RLN) connect clients to community-based services, to ensure a seamless transition from tertiary hospitals and access to support during advanced stage respiratory disease. The RLN ensures effective communication between community and hospital-based services to achieve best care. Eligible clients receive telehealth monitoring to identify clinical deterioration and promote self-management. If required, this may lead to referral to an appropriate clinical service.
