Caring for clients throughout the lifespan and in a family context is emphasized, as well as the specialized care of clients with specific disorders most commonly seen in the home, such as pulmonary disease, cancer, AIDS, stroke, Alzheimer's disease, heart failure, and renal and genitourinary disorders.
