Tampa General's TGH at Home Program Brings Acute-Level Care to the Patient's Home

Tampa General Hospital's TGH at Home program revolutionizes healthcare by delivering acute-level care directly to patients in their own homes. This innovative program, analyzed by Jasmyne Ray and Eric Wicklund, allows patients to receive high-quality medical treatment and support without the need for hospitalization. By leveraging technology and skilled healthcare professionals, TGH at Home aims to enhance patient experience, improve outcomes, and reduce healthcare costs, ultimately transforming the way acute care is delivered. Using remote patient monitoring and telehealth technology and home health visits, the hospital's physicians can receive real-time health information about a patient who is ill or recovering at home. Combined with in-person care, Tampa General can manage care for patients in their home who would otherwise be hospitalized.
