Abstract
Home care is usually viewed as the in-home or community-based option for providing long-term care to elderly persons. While the majority of this chapter will address precisely this option, two points should be noted: home care may also be provided to persons of all ages, not just the elderly, and some persons require home care only as a short-term (usually defined as less than 60 days) care solution.Keywords
