With home care, Clients can come home sooner from the hospital. Since
the services of nurses, and therapists can follow up Clients home, they don’t
have to stay in the hospital as long.
Both the client and family members can be more intimately involved with
the Client’s treatment at home
Depending on the severity of an illness or disability , many illness can
be managed at home with the right support network.
Clients may only need support to administer their medications to keep
them at home. Working with the Client on
physical therapy and coaching them on their recovery will build independence.
There are no visiting hours at home. Home provides a place where family
and friends can be close to the person at all hours.
Being at home is simply more comfortable for most people than being in
an unfamiliar place.
Clients tend to have a greater sense of well-being and overall morale
when they are in the comfortable surroundings of their own home.
Research has shown that recovery can be faster at home than in the
hospital, particularly if there is good quality, skilled home health care
available to the Client.
Depending on the hours needed, home care can be much more affordable
than private hospitals, nursing homes or other institutions.
