Abstract

The corona crisis has led to an increased focus on treating patient groups in isolation. SAFEHOUSE aims to spread the NærKlinikken model to lung patients in Region Zealand. By offering special risk groups digital solutions that enable patients to follow their condition through virtual contact with healthcare professionals as well as social virtual contact with people in the same situation, the model is expanded to be able to handle the challenges posed by increased isolation. This means that you can prevent hospitalizations, reduce the risk of infection and reduce the pressure on the health care system, as well as increase the feeling of security and freedom for citizens and relatives
