Home health nurses may assist patients with day-to-day activities (DLs) such as bathing, toileting, feeding, or guide and supervise aids in providing ADL treatment. In addition, nurses keep records of vital signs, perform emergency orders, take blood, record their activities and the patient's health status, and interact with the patient, relatives, and psychiatrist.
COVID-19 impact on the global home healthcare market:
Due to COVID-19, demand for home healthcare is growing exponentially.
Home health services provide broad-based care delivered by licensed medical practitioners, including specialist nursing care, physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy. In addition, the global pandemic COVID-19 raises the need for treatment services from beds to available physicians. In this scenario, homecare is serving as a boom for the healthcare sector, where home health providers will be able to support disabled and aging people in the safety of their homes. In addition, home-based care is a vital alternative to facility-based care, particularly for preventing infection during the COVID-19 pandemic.
COVID-19 has helped show that home care programs successfully keep seniors safe and well. When doctor's offices curtail appointments, caregivers may be on the front lines of patients at home. This care is attracting more recognition and gratitude from healthcare professionals worldwide. In addition, nursing homes and assisted living societies are unsafe in the wake of a pandemic; certain institutions have had diseases with catastrophic results. If it demonstrates its benefit relative to nursing homes and assisted living communities, it believes that the Medicare benefits and other federal reimbursement benefits will arise.
Besides, during COVID-19, several caregivers have been employed to monitor temperatures in offices or warehouses, and the role of the caregiver to grown as a result of this pandemic. They also helped with diet and drug pick-up. In the early period of the lockdown, there was a substantial drop in the nursing care industry. However, with outdoor medical capability passing its threshold and the government taking steps to train and hire home care nurses, the demand is projected to expand rapidly.

Additionally, technical developments in-home care services, governments supporting home healthcare, COVID-19 impact on cost and unavailability of hospital beds, and ambulance services are further estimated to accelerate the global home healthcare market growth. In the COVID-19 pandemic, where coronavirus patients need medical assistance, many home health professionals chose to care for patients at home. Furthermore, stern payment plans, patient care concerns, and inadequate insurance rates are barriers to developing the home healthcare market.

MARKET RESTRAINTS:
The scarcity of the right nursing staff with skills and care attitudes is expected to hamper the growth rate of the global home healthcare market.
New evolutionary healthcare devices are coming into the global home healthcare market, which requires effort and time and is one of the most complex tasks for companies. Therefore, it's not easy for companies to provide home healthcare facilities to many people. Additionally, negligence in giving certificates to the caretakers from professionals, lack of sufficient knowledge over these services in rural areas, and rapid changes in the economic strategies are further expected to limit the global home healthcare market to a small extent.
MARKET CHALLENGES:
Many barriers can discourage physicians from taking part in home-based treatment. For example, treatment for patients at home requires longer appointments and a reduced panel scale compared to the hospital or workplace setting. Home health service providers' big problem is the shortage of qualified HCPs who can meet the degree of expertise required for home care facilities. Home health practitioners operate in rural areas and are usually away from superior physicians. This requires additional skill and an experienced hand to support the patient with adequate care. It is challenging to build up a team of such professional HCPs that is counterproductive to the customer-trust aspect.
The lack of service facilities, including life-sustaining and support-sustaining medical devices (DMEs), makes it challenging to address the critical care needs of patients at home. Also, New forthcoming healthcare equipment requires time, commitment, and a good atmosphere for installing these products. Therefore, it is challenging for many patients to handle these problems at home. Besides, several illnesses need a 24/7 examination, and, in this situation, it is not possible to offer healthcare, or it is very complicated for both healthcare providers and patients.
MARKET OPPORTUNITIES:
Amid COVID-19, home healthcare is a blessing to the healthcare industry, helping patients and healthcare providers feel comfort, independence, and social distancing. Despite this, the increasing need for affordable healthcare options, technical advances, and numerous new treatment processes will generate a range of opportunities for the global home healthcare market.
