The eligibility for a home hospital bed varies depending on the specific medical condition and the patient’s individual circumstances. For heart failure and community-acquired pneumonia, Santos-Eggimann (2001) found that while a significant proportion of patients were medically eligible, the acceptance of home hospital programs was low. Salazar (2009) demonstrated the effectiveness and safety of a home hospitalization unit for acutely ill patients, particularly those with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, chronic heart failure, and pneumonia. Júnior (2010) emphasized the need for specific equipment, such as a versatile hospital bed, to support home care. Pian (2020) proposed a new model of pediatric home hospital care, suggesting that certain acute illnesses, including pneumonia, could be managed at home with appropriate support. These studies collectively suggest that a home hospital bed may be suitable for patients with specific medical conditions, particularly those with chronic illnesses or acute exacerbations, and when there is adequate support and equipment available.

Rehabilitation involves a set of therapeutic interventions that restore the patient's physical abilities and help them regain independence. This could range from recovering from orthopedic surgeries to managing chronic pain conditions. The success of rehabilitation often hinges on the right tools and equipment, which is where Performance Health steps in with its extensive range of high-quality rehab supplies.
