Long-term care encompasses a wide range of assistance, support, and care provided over an extended period of time to meet the medical, personal, and social needs of those who cannot fully support themselves. The primary goal of long-term care is to maintain a patient’s maximum functional independence.
Long-term care insurance typically covers the cost of: help in the home with personal activities like bathing, dressing, and eating, as well as homemaker chores like cleaning and bill paying; visiting nurses; community programs, such as adult day care; assisted living services, which typically include meals, health monitoring, and help with daily activities that are provided in special residential settings other than at home; and skilled nursing care. |
