Welcome to Beevers Manufacturing

At Beevers Manufacturing we work to bring peace of mind to patients, family and caregivers by providing products to ensure patient safety and comfort. More specifically, we focus on products for neonatal and pediatric respiratory care.

When we say “It’s all about the babies™,” we mean it. We got started in this business when Kate Beevers, who is a Respiratory Therapist, invented the Tilson Trach Guard™ to help Nick Tilson, a very special little boy.

In the summer of 1986 she was working in the pediatric intensive care unit at St. Luke’s Hospital in Boise, Idaho when Nick first came to visit. He was about a year old and had been trached early on because of a congenital condition. He was getting more vigorous by the month; however, he was plagued by periodic pulmonary problems that seemed to set him back. Because of his condition his parents were constantly anxious and occasionally needed a day or two just for themselves. On one of those respite visits, the nurses were alerted when his oxygen monitor’s alarm went off. Nick had occluded his trach opening and was quietly crashing.

Kate saw a critical need to help prevent such blockages of pediatric tracheostomy tubes and went to her husband Tim, an engineer by training, to ask his help. Together they created what became the Tilson Trach Guard™ and the subsequent 1987 launch of Beevers Manufacturing.
