Home first maximizing use of investments while creating better outcomes for seniors and reducing ALC

Canadian Home Care Association (Added Author). Canadian Electronic Library (Firm) (Added Author).

Summary: "The Home First concept ... meant that a patient designated as ALC in the hospital should not be routed to Long-Term Care. Indeed, LTC placement is a social process and it is more appropriate for this transition to occur from home ... Home First is predicated on leveraging the enhanced investments in community care services; creating operational processes to enable access to community care services; and promoting a shift in culture to committing to care options outside of hospital"--P. 2.
