The level of care required is determined by a combination of factors, including:
Patient's medical condition: Acute, chronic, or terminal conditions necessitate different levels of care. Severity of symptoms: More severe symptoms often require higher levels of care. Treatment goals: Goals such as curative treatment, symptom management, or end-of-life care influence the level of care. Healthcare setting: The care setting, whether it is a hospital, clinic, or home, also determines the level of care. Availability of resources: The availability of medical professionals, equipment, and support services impacts the level of care.
