What Is Long-Term Care?
Long-term care supports individuals who need help with daily activities like dressing, eating, and bathing, or who need ongoing medical support. It is often the right choice for people who can no longer live independently due to aging, illness, or injury.
It is about more than day-to-day tasks. It is about creating an environment where individuals keep as much independence as possible while getting the support they need, from medication management to meals to skilled nursing care.

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions About Long-Term Care
Are nursing homes considered long-term care?
Yes. Nursing homes provide long-term care for those who need continuous support. While some residents stay for short-term rehabilitation after surgery or an illness, others make the facility their home, receiving care tailored to their long-term health needs.
Does Medicare cover long-term care?
Medicare usually covers short-term stays in a skilled nursing facility after a hospital visit, but it does not pay for permanent long-term care. Medicaid and other financial assistance programs may help. If you have questions about costs and coverage, our team is happy to guide you through your options.
How do you create a care plan for each resident?
Every individual has unique needs. We work closely with families to develop a personalized care plan built around each resident’s health, preferences, and daily routines, and we adjust it over time as those needs change.
