The Benefits of House Call Doctor

Personalised care.

Some patients can now be hospitalised at home and be cared for via teleconsultations, home visits

SINGAPORE - Some patients who would normally spend time in hospital can now recover at home with the help of mobile medical teams, in an effort to allow them to get better in a familiar setting while helping to ease the hospital bed crunch.

Up to 2,000 patients can be treated at home in this manner over the next two years in a trial at National University Health System (NUHS@Home), Singapore General Hospital (SGH@Home) and Yishun Health Medical Home, with plans to rope in more hospitals later. Each hospital has a special team trained in caring for the home-based patients.

The new care model, called the Mobile Inpatient Care @ Home (MIC@Home), which was announced on Thursday, increases a patient's comfort, reduces hospital acquired infections, improves manpower efficiency and increases bed capacity without the need to build more inpatient wards in hospitals, said Mr Lai Yi Feng, senior manager and project lead of MIC@Home.

It is especially important as Singapore's population ages, leading to a growing demand for inpatient care with insufficient manpower to staff wards.

Said Mr Lai: "As the provision of healthcare continues to shift from hospital to the home and community, structural change and reorganisation of care delivery are pivotal."

Patients are cared for by a team of doctors, nurses, pharmacists and therapists through teleconsultations and home visits.

They receive similar clinical care to what they would receive in hospital, such as intravenous medication and blood tests, as well as 24/7 access to the care team until they are fit to be discharged, said Mr Lai.

Should the patient's condition deteriorate, he can be transferred to a hospital.

Earlier pilot trials showed that home hospitalisation is effective and safe for selected patients, with time taken to get well similar or reduced compared to those who were admitted to hospitals.

This trial, which is a scaling up from earlier trials, was announced in Parliament in March 2022 , was started in April and is set to conclude by March 2024.

Patients under this initiative receive subsidies similar to those in hospitals, and they can expect a bill similar to that if they were to stay in a hospital.

Said Mr Lai: "We recognise that it is not for everyone and there are patients who would still prefer to be cared for in a hospital environment. These are the patients that we will need to slowly work on to change their mindsets.

"Those who are willing to try this care model, and those with confidence in the care team and the technologies that we have, these are the kinds of patients that we are targeting at this point."

Similar established care models in places like Australia, Europe and the United States have shown equivalent clinical outcomes as ward hospitalisations.

Patients recovering at home also reported sleeping and eating better, walking around more and perceived their recovery to be quicker.

Ms Teo Soo Leng, 51, was hospitalised at home from Aug 19 to 28 under NUHS@Home for cellulitis, a skin infection, and bacteremia, the presence of bacteria in the bloodstream.

She said: "Initially, I was sceptical about how the doctors and nurses would be able to support me virtually. However, I was impressed by how proactive and contactable the team was when I was on the programme.

"I had to send a health report via a virtual monitoring platform three times a day and if I forgot, they would call me. There was also a video call every morning."

She added that her mother had peace of mind to be able to watch over her at home.

Dr Sandra Tan, an associate consultant at NUH's division of advanced internal medicine who cared for Ms Teo, said she recovered "really well" at home.

Dr Stephanie Ko, a consultant in the division of advanced internal medicine at NUH and who is also the lead clinician for NUHS@Home, said: "Since the Covid-19 pandemic, more people are a lot more receptive to things being brought to the doorstep, such as groceries, medications and certain kinds of services. So this programme is coming in at a very opportune time, where medical care is brought to their homes."

Enhancing Healthcare Access: The Importance and Benefits of Doctor Home Visits in Singapore

In the fast-paced world of modern medicine, convenience and accessibility are paramount. In Singapore, a city-state known for its efficiency and advanced healthcare system, doctor home visits have emerged as a crucial healthcare service, ensuring that medical care reaches every doorstep. This article explores the significance and advantages of doctor home visits in Singapore, shedding light on how this service is reshaping healthcare delivery in the country.

Accessible Healthcare: A Cornerstone of Singapore’s Success

Singapore’s healthcare system is renowned globally for its efficiency, quality, and accessibility. The government’s proactive approach in promoting a healthy populace is reflected in various policies and initiatives. One such initiative that has gained momentum in recent years is doctor home visits. This service ensures that medical care is not limited to hospitals and clinics, making healthcare accessible to individuals who cannot easily visit healthcare facilities due to various reasons, such as mobility issues, chronic illnesses, or busy schedules.

Convenience Redefined

One of the primary benefits of doctor home visits is the unparalleled convenience they offer to patients. In today’s hectic lifestyle, finding time to visit a doctor can be challenging. Doctor home visits eliminate the need to commute, wait in long queues, or take time off from work. Patients can receive medical attention in the comfort of their homes, saving valuable time and reducing stress, especially for the elderly and individuals with disabilities.

Personalized and Comprehensive Care

Doctor home visits provide an opportunity for personalized and comprehensive healthcare. By observing the patient’s living conditions and environment, doctors can gain valuable insights into their overall health. This holistic approach enables physicians to offer tailored advice, address specific concerns, and provide appropriate recommendations, ensuring a higher quality of care.

Enhanced Doctor-Patient Relationship

The intimate setting of a patient’s home fosters a stronger doctor-patient relationship. Patients often feel more relaxed and open to discussing their symptoms and concerns, leading to better communication. This improved rapport is fundamental to accurate diagnosis, effective treatment, and long-term health management. In-home visits, doctors have the time to listen attentively, answer questions, and provide detailed explanations, enhancing the overall patient experience.

Elderly Care and Palliative Services

Doctor home visits are particularly vital for Singapore’s aging population. With a growing number of elderly citizens, the demand for specialized healthcare services, especially for chronic conditions, is on the rise. Home visits cater to the unique needs of the elderly, offering geriatric assessments, medication management, and palliative care services. These services not only improve the quality of life for the elderly but also provide immense relief to their families, knowing that their loved ones are receiving personalized and compassionate care.

Preventive Healthcare and Health Education

Beyond treating existing illnesses, doctor home visits also play a crucial role in preventive healthcare and health education. Physicians can assess the patient’s lifestyle, provide guidance on healthy habits, and conduct screenings to detect potential health risks early. By imparting knowledge about disease prevention, nutrition, and overall wellness, doctors empower patients to make informed decisions about their health, leading to a healthier society in the long run.

Doctor home visits have emerged as a beacon of hope in the realm of healthcare, ensuring that medical care is not confined within the walls of hospitals but reaches every corner of society. In Singapore, a country known for its commitment to progress and innovation, this service embodies the nation’s dedication to the well-being of its citizens. By embracing the concept of doctor home visits, Singapore is not only enhancing healthcare access but also nurturing a healthier, happier, and more connected society. As this service continues to evolve and expand, it holds the promise of transforming the healthcare landscape, making a significant difference in the lives of individuals and communities alike.

The Pros and Cons of a Doctor Home Visit in Singapore

Doctor home visits, which was once a forgotten relic of the past, has started to gain traction again because of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Going to a hospital for a doctor’s consultation or checkup has become a risky proposition, because of the bigger chance of contracting the coronavirus there. Because of this, many doctors and medical professionals have started doing home visits, in which patients can call up a doctor to go and have the consultation done at the comfort of their homes. Find out more about how the process of doctor home visits in Singapore are done.

A Short History of Doctor Home Visits

If you have watched some early movies or movies set during the late 1800s or early 1900s, then you might have noticed that there are often scenes of doctors doing home visits. This is because this practice was more or less the norm during these times as hospitals weren’t that advanced yet and many sick people preferred to recover in the comfort of their homes and in the presence of their closest family members. Because of this, doctors had to do home visits to check on the condition of the patient and monitor his/her status.

However, little by little, doctor home visits became more and more rare due to the increase of the number of patients as well as the advancement of medical equipment and technologies in hospitals. Hospitals also allow a doctor to take care and monitor multiple patients at the same time, making proper healthcare accessible to a greater number of patients. This has also allowed many doctors to specialize in certain medical fields, which has made it much easier to develop innovations in the medical field.

Things changed once the pandemic started last 2019 though. Due to the coronavirus spreading very quickly, hospitals have become a dangerous place to visit due to the higher risk of contracting the virus. People have also been discouraged from leaving their homes, and many businesses and workplaces have transitioned to a work-from-home arrangement to limit the spread of the disease.

Because of this, accessing proper healthcare at a hospital has become a much more complicated procedure compared to before, as there are multiple restrictions that need to be kept in mind before you can schedule a consultation with a hospital doctor. Due to this, alternative ways of getting healthcare have sprung up to adjust to the current world situation, such as remote consultations via a conferencing app as well as the revival of doctor home visits in Singapore.

What are the Pros and Cons of Availing a Doctor Home Visit in Singapore?

Before you decide to call a doctor for a home visit, it is important that we know the advantages and disadvantages of it compared to a regular consultation with a doctor at a clinic or hospital.

• You do not have to leave your home to get a proper consultation.

One of the best things about doctor home visits is that a patient can stay at the comfort of his home and would not need to travel to a hospital to get a consultation. Driving or commuting to a hospital or medical clinic carries its own risks especially for a sick person. Instead of you having to go to the hospital, you can let your doctor come to you instead.

• It lessens the risk of coronavirus transmission and other contagious viral diseases.

Visiting a hospital will always carry the risk of contacting not just the coronavirus, but other viral diseases as well. Even if you take the utmost precautions during the hospital visit, you are still exposing yourself to the outside elements compared to just staying at home and avoiding it altogether. The more people you expose yourself to, the greater the risk of getting these diseases.

• You are closer to your family.

If you opt to avail of a doctor home visit in Singapore, you can feel much more assured knowing that you are close to your family and friends if ever you need them for support. Especially since the pandemic has limited family and friends from visiting patients in the hospital, having them close to you at all times can lift up your spirit and help you in your treatment and recovery.

• You can be assured that your doctor will have your full attention during the visit.

During a doctor home visit, the doctor’s only patient is you. He or she can focus on giving you the care that you need and evaluate your condition. Compare that to a doctor in a hospital that not only has to take care of you but his/her other patients in the hospital at the same time.

• Not all patients can be treated solely with a doctor home visit.

For the common cold and other prevalent illnesses like the flu, a doctor may be able to treat you and prescribe you the right medicine during a home visit. He or she can also do some basic tests on your vitals with just the equipment he has in hand. However, for more serious illnesses, they may require the services of medical equipment and technology that can only be found at hospitals. However, if you are unsure yet of your condition, a doctor home visit may be a better initial option so that a preliminary assessment can be done and it will be up to the doctor to determine whether you need to be brought to a hospital or not.

• Doctor home visits are less structured compared to being in a hospital or clinic.

As mentioned in the above, the doctor in a home visit may not be able to give you the complete care that you need for your sickness depending on your condition and your home. The doctor may bring with him a nurse or medical professional, but there is no definite standard to which this is done. Compare that with a hospital consultation in which most of the equipment and personnel are much more readily available.

So, should you avail of a doctor home visit in Singapore or not?

Ultimately, the decision will depend on you and other factors like the type of condition you are in and the comfort of your home. A good way to handle this is by availing of a doctor home visit for your initial consultation and then let the doctor decided whether or not to continue your treatment at home or at a hospital or medical facility.
