Which statement is valid concerning a child with a tracheostomy? These children are cared for in a medical child care facility so will not be on the caseload for an ITDS doing home visiting. All caretakers must be fully trained in the care of the tracheostomy and emergency procedures. Feeding will be eased for a child with a tracheostomy as the swallowing reflex is more sensitive. These children are well medicated and therefore are less prone to bacterial infections.
