AB  - A study in Derbyshire showed that there are wide variations in the populations served by individual home nurses. These variations are difficult to reduce. To assess the quantity and quality of home nursing that is provided more sophisticated formulae than the nurse/population ratio are necessary. For these data derived from output of work are inadequate; studies of need are required in each locality.
