Hands-On: refers to the physical care and assistance provided directly to individuals by healthcare professionals. Hands-on care requires healthcare professionals to use their hands and physical skills to provide direct assistance and support to individuals in need. It involves direct contact and interaction with the patient's body, such as performing physical examination and assessments, administering medication, providing wound care, assisting with personal hygiene, and helping with mobility or activities of daily living.
Direct Care: refers to the provision of healthcare services directly to individuals in need. Direct care services can include a wide range of activities, such as physical examinations, medication management, wound care, health education, counseling, and assistance with activities of daily living. The goal of direct care is to address the immediate healthcare needs of individuals and promote their overall health and well-being.
