ABSTRACT
Ambulatory care is an important service for patients with the COVID-19 infection especially in a regional area where most of the patients underwent home isolation. Escalation of treatment and timely transition to inpatient care are critical when COVID-19 patients deteriorate. Equally important is ensuring transfer into facility is carried out in a well-planned, safe manner to prevent exposure to health care professionals as well as other inpatients. This study is a summary of our COVID Hospital-in-the-Home (HITH) service and clinical presentation of COVID-19 patients.
