Transportation is provided if patients need diagnostic tests at the hospital.“Hospital at Home has a chance to be a real game changer for our patients. We are dedicated to ensuring high-quality care is accessible to all patients, regardless of their location or health challenges,” said Susan Jarvis, Sanford Fargo chief operating officer.
