Formal home care use in Canada / by Heather Gilmour.: CS82-003/2018-9-19-1E-PDF

"Formal home care services (those typically delivered by health care providers or volunteer organizations) are different from informal home care services (given by family, friends or neighbours), and thus represent a partial picture of all home care provided. Home care has been associated with decreased mortality, improved quality of life, and reduced hospitalizations and health care costs"--Abstract, page 3.
