Background: With the proliferation of Hospital at Home (HaH) programmes globally, there is a need to equip junior doctors with the skills necessary for provision of HaH care. The ideal training structure and clinical requirements for junior doctors to be considered competent in providing HaH care is still poorly understood. This study examines the perceptions of junior doctors towards HaH, and aims to determine the learning needs that might be helpful for future curriculum planning. Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study of residents at the National University Health System (NUHS) Singapore. Using a 45-item questionnaire, we explored the knowledge, attitudes and perceptions of residents towards HaH, and their interest in participating in HaH as part of residency training. Results: One hundred six residents responded. Overall knowledge and attitudes were mostly average. Perceptions were neutral but comparatively lower in the domains of safety, efficiency and equity. 69% of residents showed a positive attitude and interest to participate in HaH as part of residency rotations. 80% of respondents were keen to have a 2–4 week rotation incorporated into routine training. Demographic factors that influenced higher scores in various domains included type of residency programme and years of work experience. Conclusion: Our findings suggest that residents are interested in participating in HaH. Incorporation of HaH rotations in residency training will allow juniors doctors to receive greater exposure and training in the skills specific to provision of HaH care. Further studies on the introduction of a HaH curriculum and Entrustable Professional Activities (EPAs) specific for HaH in residency training may be useful to to ensure that we have a competent HaH workforce that can support and keep up with the growth of HaH globally.
