AeroFlow

A leading Healthcare provider in the Southeast, Aeroflow Healthcare has seen tremendous growth in the past year. Serving patients since 2001, Aeroflow helps those who suffer from respiratory problems, sleep disorders, and those who suffer from conditions that limit their mobility.

This booming business provides Disease Management Clinics, Diagnostic Testing, Home Oxygen Service, equipment used to help patients with respiratory and mobility problems, and much, much more.

With seven different locations throughout North Carolina and Eastern Tennessee, Aeroflow is proud of their growth. This month celebrates the move of their Asheville Corporate office to a new, expanded location at 3165 Sweeten Creek Road. Julie Lewis, Operations Officer, is excited and ready for the many opportunities ahead. “The new facility has 31,000 square feet, a new pharmacy headed by Ryan Bullock, and will house over 80 employees,” Julie says. “We plan to add two more locations within North Carolina and South Carolina before the end of the year. Aeroflow will also be expanding their services by adding on a Pediatric and Orthopedic Division at each location.”

Proper Sleep Health and education are a main focus within Aeroflow’s mission. Aeroflow is one of the few companies in the area that offer diagnostic In-Home Sleep Studies. These tests analyze key information that deals with a person’s AHI (Apnea Hypopnea Index), flow limitation, snoring, and oxygen desaturation index. These Sleep Studies are incredibly effective and very affordable. In fact, the average cost of a home sleep study is 90 percent less than what a lab or hospital would charge patients. Historically, a diagnostic sleep study could only be performed in a laboratory setting away from the comfort of the patients’ home. Now patients have options for diagnosis and treatment. Your physician can order an In-Home Sleep Study on-line at AeroflowInc.com.

Aeroflow is also tackling Sleep Disorders on the road…and nationwide! It is estimated that 1 of every 4 truck drivers in the United States occasionally fall asleep at the wheel. Aeroflow is adamant about educating trucking companies to be more proactive in implementing safety measures involving Sleep Disorders. “We’ve added 10 new trucking companies this year with the expertise of Josh Hill, Industrial Medicine Manager, and we hope to add 50 more companies within the next year. The Federal Motor Carrier wants to decrease trucking accidents 50 percent by the year 2012 and partnering with Aeroflow Industrial Clinics can help companies accomplish this task,” stated Julie. Aeroflow is working hard to make our roadways safer and improve the quality of life for those who need it.

With a highly-qualified staff of professionals including RNs, LPNs, Respiratory Therapists, Occupational Therapists, clinicians, and a dedicated support staff, each employee is an integral part in making people’s lives easier, healthier, and happier. “We are committed to following our mission to improve our patients’ quality of life through compassion, excellent service, and exceptional products. We feel that it is our duty, responsibility, and privilege to help them regain their freedom and live a healthier life,” Julie adds.
