Abstract
In recent years community-based healthcare has started becoming more important. This is because hospital stays are becoming much shorter. Clients are being discharged from hospital into community care much earlier than they were in the recent past. As our ability to deal with acute conditions, such as the trauma from road accidents improves, more people are surviving with impairments which need continuing care, usually provided in the community.
