The Commodity of Care

Home Care Reform in Ontario

About this Publication

Please note that this book is out of print.

Home care is one of the fastest growing areas in health care today. A matter of expediency for policymakers and of convenience for patients, it is also a lucrative new market. In 1996, Ontario introduced managed competition to home care. The Commodity of Care explores the historical background of this change and assesses its impact on provider agencies, caregivers, care recipients, and on the very way care itself is conceived.

Over the last 30 years, the CCPA has provided alternative research and analysis that have been indispensable in exposing the corporate agenda. I don’t know what I’d have done without them.
