Answer:

The best answer to the question: Which statement accurately reflects an outcome for this program, when talking about a nurse who is visiting a patient with worsening heart failure, and who might be a candidate for the "Hospital at Home" program, would be: "Patients who are treated and cared for at home, and who are exposed to the influence of their loved ones, and friends, recover faster, and have a better outcome, are happier, than those who remain in the hospital. Therefore, the "Hospital at Home" program, is a great opportunity for patients like the one in this case."

Step-by-step explanation:

It has been constantly proven that the best environment for patients, especially certain types like this one, is their own, and that is their own home, where their family and friends are. The impact of familiar surroundings, and the influence of family members, loved ones, and friends, on the health conditions of patients, has proven that programs like this one will improve quality of life, and health outcomes.
