title: [Health indicators: the health status of the population attended to by a at home care program].
abstract: The authors describe health indicators in their functional, social, mental and cognitive dimensions for patients included in an at home care program by means of an observational study of prevalences; these patients are part of the 12,000 patients included in the "Health at Home" Program run by the Primary Health Care Teams of the Catalonian Health Institute in the city of Barcelona. Information was obtained on 517 subjects. In spite of the fact that half of these patients have poor results recorded in their files under health indicators, only one fourth of these patients had a complete geriatric evaluation.
