Signs a patient may benefit from skilled home health
Frequent Hospital Visits
A “hospital frequent flyer” is a patient who frequently visits the hospital, whether for medical treatment, check-ups, or due to chronic health conditions. These individuals tend to have a history of multiple hospitalizations, and their visits can be frequent or extended, often due to complex or long-term health issues.
