Longer hospital stay for old age patients is generally risky due to chance of cross infection which is termed as nosocomial infection. This infection rates are higher even in highly maintained hospitals as well. Not all medical and surgical conditions are manageable at home but major bulk of care can be managed at home with comparatively lower cost than that of Hospitals. The recovery rates at home with their own environment and family members are shown higher by several studies. It reduces the stress of hospital stay.
