Home care is a form of health care service provided where a patient lives. Patients can receive home care services whether they live in their own homes, with or without family members. The purpose of home care is to promote, maintain, or restore a patient’s health and reduce the effects of disease or disability. Patient may require home care services that may range from such homemaking services as cooking or cleaning to skilled medical care. Some patients require home health aides or personal care attendants to help them with activities of daily living (ADL). This will allows them to feel more comfortable and less anxious.
One of the major advantages of home health care is that it costs less than keeping a patient in the hospital. Deciding between home health care and health care at a medical facility can be a tough decision. Some people may be concerned that they won’t get the same quality care at home that they’d get in the hospital, but according to the National Association for Home Care and Hospice, home health care can provide many services with the same level of quality received in a health care setting. Receiving services at home can also make a positive impact in the mental and emotional wellbeing of the patient.
