What is home healthcare?

Home healthcare, simply put, is healthcare delivered in a patient's home.  Home healthcare services can range from in-home nursing care or rehabilitation following a hospital stay, to ongoing assistance with daily living activities such as shopping, meal preparation or bathing.
