Homecare in Canada . : CP32-79/42-2002E-PDF

Homecare is a fact of life in Canada. Hundreds of thousands of people across the country are receiving care at home that not long ago would only have been given in institutions. But homecare has grown piecemeal. Its development has been spurred by budget cuts that pressured hospital managers to get patients out the door, medical breakthroughs that have made it possible to deliver many types of care outside of institutional walls, and values that lead families to keep the frail, the chronically ill and even the dying at home rather than send them away to an institution.
