Video Summary

The session focused on delivering optimal patient care using technology and remote solutions outside traditional hospital settings. Dr. Jaspal Singh introduced the concept of providing intensive care beyond hospital walls, highlighting Atrium Health’s Hospital at Home program, which started during the COVID-19 pandemic. This initiative aimed to improve patient experience and create ICU capacity by delivering inpatient-level care in a patient’s home using remote monitoring, audio-video connectivity, and in-person visits by healthcare professionals. The program, effective in treating conditions like COPD, asthma, and hypertension, has successfully reduced hospitalizations and readmissions, lowered mortality rates, and enhanced patient satisfaction. The overall goal is to leverage technology to provide high-quality care in resource-limited environments, ultimately changing how medicine is practiced worldwide and increasing healthcare accessibility.
