Quality assurance in home care
Clin Geriatr Med.
1991 Nov.
Abstract
The current increasing role of home care in US health care has brought with it the need for the development of standards addressing the quality of home care services. Home care poses quality assessment difficulties because of the broad spectrum of in-home procedures and services now available. Home care professionals (including physicians), as well as local, state, and national medical organizations all play a significant role in developing and enforcing quality assurance standards in home care.
