Patients not only need curative treatment but also preventive, supportive, and rehabilitative health and social services. The Home Healthcare Program has been established to meet the increasing demand in response to this need.

Today, the increase in the number of older adults as a result of the extended average life expectancy; advancements in medicine and technology allowing many health services to be provided at home; shorter hospital stays and the rise of outpatient surgery have all contributed to the growing importance of home healthcare.

Home healthcare primarily involves meeting an individual's needs in their own home. It aims to improve the quality of life by enabling individuals to access the health and care services they need without being separated from their families and social environments. The scope of home healthcare varies according to the individual's needs.
