title: A disability perspective on home care.
abstract: As the disabled community continues to find its voice, advocates are trying to change the way our society defines disabled persons and the way our health care system defines the services they need. Home- and community-based care can offer the disabled the independence and community access they want--home care agencies should be aware of the special needs of this growing population.
