COVID-19 In-Home Management Program
The COVID-19 in-home management program is an innovative care program for low-acuity COVID-19 cases. It aims to free up crucial hospital beds and healthcare personnel to meet the needs of more severe coronavirus cases. The first patient was enrolled in mid-April, 2021, and since then, enrollment has increased to nearly 49 patients from Yerevan and the nearby regions. The program allows patients in Armenia, whose main reason for remaining in the hospital is oxygen therapy, to be cared for in the comfort of their own home with a comprehensive clinical visit program and an in-home oxygen concentrator.
“This cutting-edge program supports Armenia’s healthcare system’s ability to manage hospital capacities more effectively, and at the same time, makes healthcare services more accessible to patients by providing safe in-home oxygen therapy without any additional financial burden on patients and their families,” noted the program’s manager, Lus
