Abstract
The number of individuals needing non-institutional long-term care is not horrifyingly large. We have learned a great deal about how to assess need and allot services equitably. Costs of expanded publicly funded home care benefits can be controlled and the money well spent. Efforts to mobilize additional volunteer time are politically and humanly desirable to complement ongoing family care and to help secure expanded public benefits.Keywords
