Thomas Cornwell, MD, Sr. Medical Director for Village Medical at Home spoke with Hospice News about home-based healthcare during the COVID-19 pandemic. Acknowledging the importance of pre-screening, equipping providers with proper gear, and staying attuned with patient preferences and concerns, Cornwell expressed confidence in the ability to continue treatment of patients in their homes. “Home care is actually safer as a one-on-one visitation rather than going into a hospital or doctor’s office with larger populations and increased risk factors,” said Cornwell.
