Final Project Submission

Published research indicates that some of the illnesses and injuries get associated with the immediate environment a person spends time in, most people, who happen to be sickly, spend most of the time indoors. For instance, conditions such as Asthma gets connected with the nature of homes or an environment a patient gets exposed. Through home health, physicians can identify the health status of homes of affected persons and recommend a few changes or even advice on a change of environment. In a study to reduce the number of visits in a hospital, Floridian hospital practitioners opted to visit patients at home to offer care services. In just a month, there was the notable change in some visits. In particular cases of a patient with severe Asthma condition, the practitioners transformed his home by investigating and rectifying factors that fueled his condition.

Home health is very efficient, that is, very useful but relatively cheap. It is also convenient for patients and helps in cutting down health care costs from the patients’ perspective. Advocating for this type of health care delivery system would be very beneficial to the country. These are some of the rationalizations why I have chosen the topic for my project.
