Why should you look at setting up a home ICU for your loved ones who need ICU Care?

Setting up an ICU at home has its pros and cons.

Let’s talk about the pros first:

1. Highly economical – The cost of a home ICU will cut treatment costs by almost half, not to mention to and fro costs to the hospital and back for the patient as well as their attenders,

• Familiar Environment – Many people are averse to hospitals, by setting up a home ICU, your loved one can stay in their comfort zone surrounded by their family and friends.

• Faster Recovery – Home care shows significantly more improvement in patients than hospital care

• Insurance – Insurance companies have begun covering home care under their policies

• More Attention – As your home caregiver is only attending one patient, the patient will receive much higher attention than in a hospital environment

• Personalized Services – Services are designed around the specific requirements of the patient. Prevents extra expenditure

• Avoid Infection – Lesser the chance of hospital acquired infections

Cons:

1. Hospital ICU’s are better staffed with round the clock doctors, but current technology of wireless monitoring and early detection of symptoms, video calling, faster communication and information sharing can help in negating if there is a doctor available to consult at any time.

• Testing facilities – Testing at home could result in a slight time delay compared to testing at a hospital.

Looking at the pros and cons, one would agree that the pros far outweigh the cons. You will need an expert home care team and an expert home care company to setup an ICU / Home care infrastructure at you home. Your loved one deserves to be cared for in comfort and what better place than your home.
