The growing reliance on home care and community care services is a response to the rising costs of acute health care, longer wait times, and the desire to enhance the quality of life by helping patients become more independent. While community care can help with all these issues, it has its own challenges. When a patient moves from the hospital back into their home, there is need for improved planning, information sharing and communication among the patient's care providers. The community care workforce is mobile and requires communication tools that enable them to stay in touch with other health providers and their patients.
