Home Health Care News recently highlighted DispatchHealth's case study on the impact of the hospital-at-home care model on caregivers. “Being in the hospital is not often convenient for the patient or their caregivers. We have direct experience with an observation of social determinants of health that are impacting a patient’s overall health and success at home. You also avoid the risk of hospital-acquired infections, and patients tend to stay more mobile and connected to their routines, which can help speed recovery.” Dr. Patrick Kneeland, vice president of medical affairs at DispatchHealth, told Home Health Care News.
The rise of in-home alternatives to traditional hospital care is raising concerns about the potential strain these models may place on family caregivers. Insight from DispatchHealth. https://bit.ly/4031Gyt
