HERNANDEZ MARTINEZ, Paula et al. Home care services provided by hospital in a rural area, an alternative to traditional hospitalization?. Hosp. domic. [online]. 2020, vol.4, n.3, pp.111-116. Epub 10-Ago-2020. ISSN 2530-5115. https://dx.doi.org/10.22585/hospdomic.v4i3.106.
Introduction:
Hospital home care in a rural area is a hospital care little known in health field. At the same time there is little literature so we want to study the clinical characteristics, the average stay and the readmission rate of patients admitted to home hospitalization compared to patients admitted to the internal medicine hospitalization to a regional hospital in a rural area (Hospital de TresMares).
Method:
retrospective comparative descriptive study includes 200 patients (100 patients admitted to home hospitalization and 100 patients admitted to the hospital)
Results:
the complexity of the patients admitted to the hospital is greater than those admitted to home hospitalization, while requiring greater use of resources. The efficacy, understood as re admission rate, in hospitalization at home is similar that the patients who are admitted in the hospital.
Conclusions:
home hospitalization can be an alternative to tradicional hospitalization in a rural area.
