Employee Paid

Overview

Long-term care refers to a broad range of medical, personal, and social services provided to people who are unable to care for them selves over a relatively long period of time. Although most people think long-term care refers to care in a nursing home, care can also be provided at home by home health care workers, nurses, or therapists, or in a community-based adult day care center.
