Our "Hospital in the Home" service allows hospitals to service inpatients who require ongoing care but wish to recover in the familiar and comfortable surroundings of their own home.
By bringing the hospital to your patient’s home, we aim to provide a more personalised, convenient and cost-effective healthcare experience.
By combining your team of healthcare professionals with our medical specialists, design a process that ensures continuity of care that meets the needs of your patient as well as the hospital.
Telecare will provide an appropriate virtual on-call HITH Physician during the hours required by the hospital.
Our HITH Physician will accept a referral from the Hospital’s medical officer. For complex cases, our HITH Physician may request a bedside video consultation with the patient, facilitated by the Recipient’s nurse prior to acceptance, to ensure HITH suitability.
Our physician will conduct a daily virtual paper round with the Recipient’s nursing team and be available for on-call queries from the Recipient’s nursing team.
Our goal is to help free the administrative burden placed on hospitals so they are able to deliver the best possible patient care. If you're interested in learning more about our service, please don't hesitate to contact us
