Service Description:
|
The eHomecare model of Nursing care
utilizes specially trained personal support workers (known as Health Care
Technician (HCT)) who receive support from a remote Directing Registered Nurse
(DRN) through a web-based portal. The HCT carries out delegated activities,
on behalf of the DRN, while providing personal care to the patient. This allows
the patient to stay in their home environment or until transitions to alternate
level of care facility (ex: Long Term Care Home, Hospice).
Hospice at Home utilizes the eHomecare model of care, but is specifically
for patients with an end-of-life trajectory. There are a set number of
funded beds established in each region throughout the South West.
