The following information is about Home Care.
Home Care Defined
In contrast with inpatient and ambulatory care, home care is medical care ordinarily administered in the house setting when a patient is not sufficiently ambulatory to make frequent office or hospital visits. With these patients, intravenous therapy for example is administered at the patient's residence, usually by a health care professional. Home care reduces the need for hospitalization and it's associated costs.
This definition is in context to Health Care. See more contextual defintions for Home Care.
