Providing more than one ventilator for a home care patient would be necessary in situations where the patient's care plan requires mechanical ventilation during mobility (option 2) and if a replacement ventilator cannot be secured within 2 hours (option 3). It is not necessary to provide more than one ventilator if the patient cannot maintain spontaneous ventilation for at least 1 hr (option 1).
