Abstract
Older people receive home care either by choice or because alternative means of care are not available. The reasons for home care have an economic and cultural component; most of it is provided on a voluntary basis, regardless of the culture of the older person. Good home care, however, should not be left entirely to volunteers, but should be supported by the state through legislation and social policies, especially in the area of primary care and health promotion, as should end-of-life care. By these means some of the negative effects of home care on the recipient and the carer can be reduced.
