What is Long-Term Care?

Long term care provides essential support for individuals who need assistance with daily activities over an extended period of time. It ensures consistent care for those with chronic illnesses, disabilities, or cognitive impairments. This type of care prioritizes physical and emotional well-being, helping residents maintain their quality of life in a safe and structured environment and cared for by our skilled nursing team. Long term care isn’t just about meeting a patient’s basic needs. It offers comprehensive services that foster stability, comfort, and dignity. Our long term care services include:

  • Long-term custodial care
  • Intravenous (IV) services
  • Restorative care

Long Term Care vs. Hospice and Palliative Care

When considering the needs of a loved one, it’s essential to understand the distinction between long-term care and hospice/palliative care. While both offer support those who require assistance, they address different stages and types of healthcare needs, including:

  • Focus on Care Needs – Long term care facilities emphasize daily living support, medical services, and sustained health management. Hospice and palliative care focus on pain relief and emotional comfort for those nearing the end of life.
  • Duration of Care – A long term care facility provides continuous care that can last months or years. Hospice and palliative care are shorter-term, often initiated in the final months of life.
  • Eligibility Requirements -Long-term care is available for individuals with chronic illnesses or cognitive impairments, while hospice care typically requires a terminal diagnosis with a prognosis of six months or less.
  • Primary Goal – The primary goal of long-term care facilities is to help improve or maintain quality of life over the long term. Hospice and palliative care aims to bring comfort and dignity to patients during the end stages of their life.

Will Medicare pay for Long-Term Care?

Understanding coverage options for long term care is essential. Medicare Part A can provide limited coverage for care in a skilled nursing facility like ours, but only under specific conditions.

For instance, coverage may apply following a qualifying hospital stay of at least three days and if care is medically necessary. However, Medicare doesn’t cover most long-term custodial care, such as assistance with daily living activities. While some costs may be covered, it’s always important to check your policy and discuss our financial options with our financial team to take full advantage of your coverage.
