Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to identify and establish a safe and effective tracheostomy teaching protocol for caregivers. Results of this study will help in the development of a discharge protocol that allows for caregiver confidence and activation in tracheostomy care for patients.
Detailed Description: This is a 3-phase, prospective controlled cohort study . The first "pre-implementation" phase will include assessment of healthcare utilization costs of tracheostomy patients currently and nursing perspective on current caregiver tracheostomy knowledge. The second "protocol" phase will include assessment of the necessity, acceptability, feasibility, fidelity, safety and effectiveness of a standardized pathway and assessment of the caregiver's activation.
