About Hospital at Home The Hospital at Home program, based out of St. Paul’s Hospital (SPH), is a provincial initiative that provides eligible patients with acute-level care in their homes instead of the hospital, servicing a catchment area within a 15-minute driving radius of SPH. The program targets patients with acute medical conditions who are clinically stable enough to receive care at home. Care includes remote patient monitoring with call bell and vital signs as well as home visits, virtual assessments (Zoom and phone), and in-hospital assessments. Point of care ultrasound is also available for home assessment, but patients are also repatriated to SPH for imaging and other procedures. A vehicle is provided for at home visits.
