Article Synopsis
- The development of home care services, particularly through telehomecare (THC), is crucial for reforming health care systems but faces slow integration into existing care frameworks.
- THC has shown potential in connecting hospital and primary care providers for treating elderly patients with severe chronic conditions, yet challenges remain in achieving widespread adoption due to various barriers.
- The study identifies two new models of home care delivery arising from THC: a specialized model and a planned polyvalent model, which necessitate adjustments in work organization and consistent communication between traditional and new care services.
