of the services Basically home care is a program devised to treat people in their own home who ordinarily would need a hospital room While the program is new to Halton many counties and regions in the province have established programs in operation The program is readily recognized by health officials as an efficient and considerably less costly way of handling the health needs of a community The program is said to cost to per day compared to and up per day for hospital care Referred by doctor To get on the program a patient must be in need of cither nursing care or physiotherapy of one form or another People on the Program are referred by their physicians While the patient must need either nursing service or physiotherapy treatment the scope of the program is much broader Dressings medication hospital beds or even oxygen Just to mention a few can be provided under the scheme Five agencies and firms submitted bids to the Ontario Department of Health early in the fall Medical Data

cancer patients would sooner be home with their family The impact of learning of their fate is ghastly but having to spend their last days in hospital Is even more dreadful Commenting on the overall aspect of the program Mrs expressed pleasure in the fact that the Department of Health had given her firm a free hand to do things as effectively and as possible Pattern In established hospitals
