Pacific Healthcare Case Study

Currently the home care program coordinates their health care aides (HCA) under what has been deemed a “fragmented” approach. As of now, the managers seek to obtain more information about other models of supervision. Due to this request, a literature review of evidence-based articles and documents was conducted. This then resulted in the search for models that best adhered to the values of the home care program and Alberta Health Services.
