Since 1982 the NAHC (national association for home care and hospice) is a trade association for business that provide healthcare and medical supplies to patients. While it is geared mostly for the business, it also serves as a great consumer resource as well. They have a catalog of resources they can mail to interested consumers and well as provide guidance to people who are looking for home care. Here is a link to that section of the website
