There are camps for children with cancer or muscular dystrophy, but not many for children who require a ventilator, BiPAP, or CPAP to breathe. This is due to the need for total care 24 hours a day. In addition to the total care, ventilator dependent children often are also wheelchair bound, which limits the availability of camp locations. That all changed in 1993, when a small group respiratory therapists, under the leadership of RT Pam Smith, founded PA Vent Camp. Since its inception, camp has grown from 14 to nearly 40 campers each year.
