Are we asking the right questions?
When heart care comes closer to home
How much care is enough?
More isn't always better. Nearly four in five eligible Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) patients returned home the same day, saving more than 300 hospital bed-days.
When does recovery start?
Earlier than we thought. For patients undergoing total knee replacement, recovery began before surgery itself and led to a 67 per cent shorter hospital stay.
Where should recovery happen?
Through NUHS@Home, many cancer patients who once needed to spend extended periods recovering in hospital can now recover at home under specialist supervision.
What are we not seeing?
The scan isn't the whole story. Nearly four in 10 young stroke survivors reported anxiety symptoms, despite physical recovery.
Who is the goal really for?
Through Personalised Care and Support Planning, the focus of consultations shifted from disease-centred reviews to discussions on patient-centred goals, helping to build confidence.
