Summary
This study examines the implications of providing hospital-level care in rural homes.
Detailed description
Home hospital care is hospital-level care at home for acutely ill patients. In multiple publications mostly in urban environments, home hospital care delivered cost-effective, high-quality, excellent experience care with similar quality and safety as traditional hospital care. Most home hospital models deliver care in urban environments, not in rural environments. To further improve the model, the investigators propose to determine the feasibility of home hospital care in a rural home setting through a proof-of-concept approach.
