ABS-CBN NEWS: Home care for COVID-19 patients harder amid rising demand, lack of health workers

“Caring for a COVID-19 patient at home is a challenging and a daunting endeavor. While there is a demand for the service, there is a lack of health workers. Despite this, however, health workers remain committed.

The Medical City in Pasig City and ActivCare each have 3 to 4 teams dedicated for home care. Each team is composed of three members: the attending physician, a caregiver or nurse and an associate physician who will do the home visits.”
