This role also focuses on clinical integration and strategy across the Department of Medicine, Dartmouth Health Home Care (formerly Visiting Nurse and Hospice), and The Dartmouth Institute for Health Policy & Clinical Practice (TDI), to ensure alignment. The mission of Dartmouth Health’s new Home Health program is to develop a nationally relevant, rural-centered model of home-based care that improves outcomes for patients and caregivers and can be scaled beyond the Upper Valley to rural health care centers across the country.
