ABOUT
November 2011, National Home Care Month, is a time when the home care community joins together to celebrate the practice of home care and all of the individuals who make it possible, especially our dedicated caregivers and the many patients whose courageous will and determined spirit of independence inspires us all.
Throughout the month of November, HCA is engaging in a public outreach campaign to further raise awarewness about home care. Please check this site often for updates on HCA's efforts to engage lawmakers, the public, and the media about home care throughout November.
