Abstract

Home from Hospital schemes run in the UK by the British Red Cross meet and match intermediate care policy's objectives. A review of 17 schemes undertaken in 1996 is compared with a review of 55 schemes operating in 2003. It suggests that such schemes are addressing needs and have the potential to develop work in prevention of hospital admission and to improve health generally.
