Prince Edward FHT’s ‘Hospital at Home’ Praised

Mar. 23 – Lauded as the possible future of healthcare, Hospital @ Home is a partnership project with the aim to divert appropriate patients requiring inpatient care to a program that wraps the necessary care around the patient in their own home – ‘the right care at the right time in the right place’. The subject of an AFHTO 2014 conference presentation, the program provides services patients wouldn’t typically receive from home care, but would have access to in the hospital setting, and at significant cost savings. Partners include Prince Edward Family Health Team, the South East CCAC, Quinte Healthcare Corporation and Saint Elizabeth Healthcare. Click here for the full article.
