Long Term Care
What is Long
Term Care?
Long term care provides several necessary services
for those with a prolonged illness, disability or cognitive disorder
such as Alzheimer’s. Long term care differs from traditional medical
care; it is designed to assist a person to maintain his or her level of
functioning rather than to rehabilitate or correct certain medical
problems. For instance, services may include help with bathing and
dressing, respite care, home health care, assisted living or nursing
home care.
Won’t Medicare
pay for these services?
NO! This is a common misconception. Medicare
will pay for skilled nursing care on a limited basis only. The Senate
Committee on Aging has found that the primary cause of poverty for the
elderly is lack of planning for Long Term Care.
Can’t My Spouse
Take Care of ME??
Your spouse may WANT to care for you, but so often
is physically unable to provide necessary care, such as lifting into a
wheel chair or into the tub.
