Four benefits of bringing healthcare home

(BPT) - There truly is no place like home. It is our haven, filled with our favorite things. It is comfortable and familiar. It makes sense, then, that receiving healthcare at home is sometimes viewed more positively than in a clinical setting.

While some procedures and screenings still need to be conducted elsewhere, increasingly, caregivers and those who receive care are looking to tap into the benefits of at-home care. Not only is it convenient, but it can also be more personalized and cost-effective. It also helps older adults maintain independence as they can manage scheduling without needing to arrange transportation.
