🏡 Home Health and Hospice Care: Compassionate Care Where It Matters Most
📖 HISTORY / ORIGIN
Home-based healthcare has existed for centuries, with caregivers and community nurses providing care outside hospitals. Modern home health services expanded during the 20th century as healthcare systems recognized the benefits of recovering at home. Hospice care gained momentum in the 1960s through the palliative care movement, focusing on comfort, dignity, and quality of life for individuals with serious or life-limiting illnesses.
