“We find ourselves in an exceptional position, leveraging the prevailing tailwinds in the operating environment to extend our reach and impact on more patients than ever before,” said Casey Hoyt, Viemed's CEO. "The foundation of our success lies in our robust and resilient business model, which has consistently demonstrated its strength in meeting challenges head-on and driving sustainable growth. We are now taking our growth to new heights by executing on strategic and accretive acquisitions that complement our existing capabilities. These acquisitions serve as powerful catalysts, accelerating the expansion of our comprehensive respiratory offerings."
