Long term care can be broadly defined as care provided
by another party for the benefit of those who are unable
to care for themselves. Generally, long term care refers
to the personal care and other related services provided
on an extended basis to people who need help with
certain Activities of Daily Living (ADL's)
or who need supervision due to severe cognitive
impairment such as Alzheimer's Disease. Care can be
provided at home, in the community, in an assisted care
facility or in a nursing home.

The need for long term care can happen in an instant or
gradually as a person's health declines. Some of
the reasons for receiving long term care include:
chronic disease, prolonged illness, injuries sustained
as a result of an accident, disability, or cognitive
impairment such as Alzheimer's Disease that limits
a person's ability to think or reason.
