The hospital can be a dangerous place, especially for older patients. Decades ago, I met a physician named Dr. Bruce Leff. He asked the question: Can we bring the hospital to the home? There’s a reason he asked that question. He has a great explanation.
I say it over and over again: There's no one more important than the caregiver in the daily life of a frail person.
Warmest Aloha,
