JHAH launched the Home Healthcare (HHC) program to support JHAH patients that face difficulty in their movement by moving care away from the hospital and towards home. Since the launch, HHC has gone through several stages of development with plans for further expansion of services.
The HHC program at JHAH is in alignment with Saudi’s Vision 2030 strategy for Healthcare Transformation and in response to the expected growth in the elderly population in the kingdom from 1.96 million in 2018 to 4.63 million by 2030. Currently, JHAH HHC offers the following services:
Skilled Nursing Care
Laboratory Services
Wound Care
Vaccination
Antibiotic Administration
Urinary Catheter Care
The program covers a 50 kilometer radius of JHAH’s healthcare facilities (in Dhahran, Al-Hasa, Ras Tanura and Abqaiq), and provides service to JHAH registered patients above the age of 14 years with limited Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) in one or more domains, or who are largely dependent on their family/caregiver, and they have frequent admissions/re-admissions.
For more information about the HHC program or to inquire about eligibility, speak to your Primary Care physician at your next clinic appointment.
