“I have been spending lots of time with Pocket TOM! It really is a wonderful tool for education. I just took it with me this a.m. to educate a 32 year lady with myasthenia exacerbation who required a trach. She has felt overwhelmed and nervous about the trach, swallowing, PMV, etc. Felt much better after education session with our buddy TOM.”
