Long Term Care
Long Term Care is in place for individuals who require assistance with their physical or emotional needs over an extended period of time. This help may be required for many of the activities or needs that healthy, active people take for granted and includes such things as:
- Bathing
- Dressing
- Using the bathroom
- Transferring
- Ambulating
- Eating
The need for long-term care help might be due to a terminal condition, disability, illness, injury or the infirmity of old age. The need for long-term care may only last for a few weeks or months or it may go on for years. It all depends on the underlying reasons for needing care.
Experts estimate that that at least 60% of all individuals will need extended help in one or more of the areas above during their lifetime.
