Get the very best care you can afford

Finding long-term care often means making difficult decisions. But the more you know about long-term care, the better off you or your loved one will be. Whether you’re planning well into the future or making an urgent decision now, Long-Term Care helps you understand the full range of your options. You’ll also learn how to:

• evaluate nursing facilities, assisted living facilities, and home care providers to find the right one


• find out what lasting effects the COVID-19 pandemic had on any nursing facility you’re considering


• get the most out of Medicaid, Medicare, and veterans’ programs


• consider the special needs of loved ones with dementia or Alzheimer’s, and


• decide whether long-term care insurance is worth the significant expense.
