Track B
Hospital at Home and the Continuum of Home-Based Care
Hospital at home should not exist in silo but rather within a continuum of home-based care where patients can seamlessly transition from one phase of care to the next without needing to leave the homes. This continuum includes various forms of care such as acute care, post-acute care, palliative care at home, primary/chronic care at home, and even episodic care like emergency room or urgent care services provided in the home. This session will delve into these topics and more, highlighting the importance of a comprehensive approach to home-based care.
