Abstract
The psychiatric home care program of the Visiting Nurse Association and Hospice of Northern California (VNAHNC) was developed in March of 1984. The largest such program in the Bay area, the program generated a revenue of more than $1 million, made 9,756 visits, and served more than 500 patients in 1992. When discussing the program at two national conferences, members of the home care community asked many questions about the feasibility of starting up their own psychiatric home care programs. This article addresses the most frequently asked questions.Keywords
