Medigy HaH: Pediatric Home Care
Pediatric home health care is a successful and comprehensive treatment option for children with medical intricacy or developmental difficulties who would usually require recurrent and/or protracted emergency room visits or chronic institutionalization. Several notable voices have explored cutting-edge strategies that have demonstrated effectiveness in sustaining and enhancing pediatric care at home, as well as existing and new innovations that can benefit clinicians in the years ahead. Pediatric health care at home has indeed been able to take advantage of commercial technologies such as wi-fi, cellphones, workstations, laptops, tablet devices, and apps that families might use to interact before the epidemic. Hospital leaders and caregivers are also using innovative approaches to better serve their patients and communities moving forward, from improving the overall patient and family experience to addressing delayed or missed care during the pandemic to meeting the mental health and health equity needs.
