Patient-Centered Medical Home (PCMH)
Subjects will receive their conditioning chemotherapy +/- radiation and stem cells in the hospital or day hospital, after which they will receive care during the neutropenic/recovery period at home. Advanced Practice Providers (APP) will travel to subjects' homes in the morning, where they will perform the same daily assessment as standard care. They will draw labs and bring them back to the hospital for processing. When results are available, a second home visit is made to deliver necessary interventions. Subjects will have internet access through cellular-networked iPads and have daily videoconferences with their physicians. Daily follow up at home will continue until discharge as per above criteria.
