Long Term Care

Statistics show that at least 6 million people aged 65 or older need long-term care and 50% of people age 85 requiring long term care. Long term care is provided when someone can no longer independently carry out essential everyday activities like eating, bathing, dressing, etc. Long-term care is most common for older people but accident or illness can strike someone of any age.

Nursing homes are a form of long term care but there are other options available with some provided in your own home or others in the community. Shop for a long-term care policy to help cover such expenses.
