hospital-level care within your own private residence
BREVARD COUNTY • FLORIDA — When you seek treatment in the emergency room, Health First knows you’re there for an urgent medical need. They also know that people often recover best when they can rest and relax. That’s why Health First offers Hospital at Home Inpatient Services to eligible patients.
● Research shows that patients tend to heal faster in their own homes.
● They spend less time in bed and are less likely to be readmitted to the hospital.
● They also report higher satisfaction with their care – plus they can enjoy more time with family and friends.
● All these benefits, plus the same level of care and treatment you’d get at the hospital, at no additional cost beyond your usual deductibles.
This innovative program is designed to provide hospital-level care within your own private residence. Eligibility is determined by your care team in the Emergency Department based on several factors, including your condition, diagnosis, and the severity of your illness.
