Home Care Service Diversification: A Pilot Investigation.
Jette, Alan M.; And Others
Gerontologist, v21 n6 p572-79 Dec 1981
Describes a diversified approach to delivering home care to vulnerable older people. This pilot program, funded by the Massachusetts Department of Elder Affairs, attempted to reduce the demand for scarce homemaker services. Results suggest homecare diversification did not alter consumer satisfaction but increased manager time. (Author/JAC)
