    Author: Gibbons D, Hamilton J, Maw G, Telford J.
    Journal: Prof Nurse; 2001 Jan; 16(4):1035-7. PubMed ID: 12029730.
    Abstract:
    A rise in the rate of hospital admissions for patients with COPD has led to the development of nurse-led home care. A study in which a nurse-led team provided domiciliary treatment with ongoing follow-up, was found to be cost-effective and reduced the need for hospital care.
