Homecare
Abstract
Until now, the “at best” or near “best” homecare environment has been so costly that few, except those with nearly unlimited financial resources, could demand it. Even those with unlimited funds were still at the mercy of the established medical facility when laboratory work was required or extensive surgery was indicated. However, with the dramatic surge of advancements in communications, computer technology, and biomedical products including materials, the homecare environment can reach the level of professionalism found only within the established medical facility or hospital.
