Funded by World Health Organization, CCOUC is undertaking a research project on homecare of individuals with COVID-19.

This 6-month research project aims to provide a rapid literature review on what we know for home care as related to patterns, practices and challenges of COVID-19; identify the various home care contexts, care giver subtypes and at-risk patient groups including informal carers, people with vulnerabilities (e.g. populations with pre-existing mental health conditions); discuss proposed programmes, policies and examples for enhancing home care capacity in various settings and addressing current gaps in home care delivery for COVID-19; and highlight existing research gaps.
