The Home Care Program combines uncountable Essential Competencies among its skills, such as those proposed by the Public Health Agency of Canada. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate the inclusion of these essential competencies in this program. This cross-sectional study was performed between January and April of 2010, with caregivers and patients followed in the program. Forma and field diaries were used for data collection. Later, an evaluation was made of the activities performed within the scope of the recommended essential competencies. Therefore, it was possible to realize that the attributions performed by the program remain below expectations, considering the biomedical model that is used, which led to the partial implementation of Essential Competencies, such as: Public Health Policies; Planning and Implementations; Partnership, Collaboration, Support and Leadership. This fact reveals the need for greater governmental efforts and by the professionals involved in the program with a view to improving the care.
