As an alternative to institutional care, home care <br />fosters a sense of independence and self-respect by affording patients the <br />right to receive services in the comfort of their homes, with the <br />reassurance and companionship of family and friends. <br />Through the dedication and caring of Orange County home care <br />providers and caregivers, a wide variety of home care services are <br />available to our citizens. Home care allows quality care to be brought to <br />all those in need: the young and old, indigent and wealthy, urban and <br />rural. By caring for the individual at home, home care not only <br />strengthens the family bond, but serves as a cost-effective method of care <br />by avoiding unnecessary institutional care. <br />Home care providers are recognized for their meaningful work with <br />our ill and disabled citizens. Through the special relationships formed <br />between patient and caregiver, a better quality of life and sense of <br />dignity are achieved by many Orange County residents each year. <br />NOW, THEREFORE, the Orange County Board of Commissioners, do hereby <br />proclaim November 29 through December 5, 1992 as "National Home Care Week" <br />in Orange County and urge our citizens to recognize the efforts of home <br />care providers and the families and friends of the elderly and disabled who <br />provide important services in the home. <br />VOTE: UNANIMOUS <br />B.
