List Advantages of Home & Community-Based Services (HCBS)

A
  1. Cost-effectiveness (Often lower (50%) hospitalization rates and costs)
  2. More Control of Personal Schedule (LTC facilities structure activities aroundstaff rotations rather than patients’ schedules. Patients spend more time lying in bed alone rather than interacting with others or receiving care. Easier to coordinate visiting with family, events, etc.)

  4. Culturally responsive (Spiritual and cultural activities and support available)
  5. Familiarity (Patient enjoys comfort of own home or small residential facility in community)
  6. Counseling or clergy assist with bereavement
