Patient Stories
Patients, particularly those new to HMV, often find it helpful to speak to other patients who are willing to share their experience. We have therefore compiled a collection of patient stories which we’ve shared as written stories and, in some cases, online videos. These stories provide a good representation of typical patient journeys, and we hope this will help other patients understand what to expect from treatment and from their device. Please note: In the videos, some of our patients refer to NIV – to be clear the devices they are using are HMV devices.
We would like to thank all of the patients who have taken the time to share their stories. These videos were filmed during the pandemic so were conducted via computer rather than in person. The quality is not as high as we would have liked but, you will understand that the safety of patients during this period was our primary concern.
