Most home-based services include personal care, such as assistance with washing, clothing, medication administration, and supervision to ensure a person's safety.
Fremont, CA: Long-term care encompasses a wide range of services aimed at meeting a person's health or personal care requirements over a short or long period. When people can no longer undertake daily activities on their own, these services help them live as freely and safely as possible.
Depending on a person's needs, various caregivers offer long-term care in multiple locations. Most long-term care is delivered at home by unpaid relatives and friends, and it can also be administered at an institution, such as a nursing home, or in the community, such as an adult day care center.
Personal care is the most prevalent sort of long-term care—assistance with daily tasks, sometimes known as "activities of daily life." Bathing, clothing, grooming, using the bathroom, eating, and moving around—for example, getting out of bed and into a chair—are examples of these activities.
