Specialize with the most complete and up-to-date scientific program on the market”

Care for patients who are hospitalized at home has certain particularities, since doctors lack the same tools available in hospitals and also because each patient, depending on the pathology involved, must be treated differently.

Even so home hospitalization is becoming a benchmark in medical care, a care focused on people and their health, as well as social needs, and which allows healthcare professionals to offer their patients the necessary care and treatment with the same quality as if it were provided in hospital facilities. It also brings other benefits, since patients are more comfortable at home, and hospital costs are saved by reducing the length of patients stays. 

This program is oriented to delve into all those aspects that make Home Hospitalization unique and different from other medical specialties, but also to show the weaknesses and opportunities for the future that still lie ahead, taking advantage of new educational technologies.

The syllabus is presented in a rigorous way with the latest scientific evidence and clinical cases in which to expand knowledge, in order to share experiences and innovative techniques that are already performed in different Home Hospitalization Units in other places. Thus, the program focuses on the different types of patients, according to their pathologies, whether geriatric, palliative, psychiatric or pediatric patients, for example, and also shows the latest developments in home antibiotic therapy.
