title: Hip fracture research results related to home care.
abstract: Hip fracture is a topic we are likely to hear more about as health care professionals continue to work collaboratively to prevent increases in incidence, cost, and poor outcomes associated with hip fracture. Research shows that home care is the optimum place for these patients and agencies should continue to strive to improve outcomes and the consistency of care across settings.
