The point of home care services is to provide needed services within the home of the patient. Generally, home care is recommended whenever a person must stay at home but still needs medical care that cannot be provided by family and friends. While home care may not bring back the days when all doctors made house calls, it does provide the opportunity for patients to receive necessary services outside of the hospital or clinic setting.
