Description
Summary:The quality and safety of health care is a priority, a requirement and a demand of health organizations and social institutions with concrete purposes of progressively providing people with a higher level of health and well-being. It is in the development of this path that home care currently represents an area of gradual investment and where health care services and the scientific community have shown interest in building circuits and instruments that can respond to needs. It is essencial that care must be centered and in close proximity to the person and their family, their context. On the other hand, in Portugal, there are already quality and safety models for the institutionalization context however it is non-existent for home care. In this sense, our objective is to identify, through a systematic review of the literature, particularly from the last 5 years, areas of quality and safety in home care.
