Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is Long-Term Care?

    Long-term care is a type of care designed for individuals with chronic or progressive health conditions that make it difficult for them to live independently. It is often for those with mobility challenges, cognitive impairments, or conditions like Parkinson’s or dementia.


    Benefits of Long-Term Care:

    • Comprehensive Assistance involves support with activities of daily living (ADLs) such as bathing, dressing, eating, and medication management.
    • Stable Environment: Services are provided in a consistent and supportive setting tailored to meet long-term needs.
    • Personalized Care Plans: Plans are developed based on the individual’s evolving physical and emotional requirements.

    Example for Families:

    Imagine your mother suffers from dementia and requires constant supervision and help with daily tasks. Long-Term Care ensures she has trained caregivers available to meet her needs and maintain her quality of life, eliminating the stress of managing care at home alone.



  • How is Long-Term Care Different from Assisted Living?

    While both options offer support, their scope and purpose differ significantly.


    • Assisted Living: Focused on residents who require some support with ADLs (e.g., light caregiving, medication reminders) but can continue to live mostly independently. It’s ideal for those who prefer social interaction and lighter assistance.
    • Long-Term Care: Designed for individuals needing more intensive, hands-on care due to chronic illnesses or severe mobility limitations.

    Example for Families:

    If your aunt is relatively independent but needs help remembering to take her medication and enjoys social activities, Assisted Living is a better fit. However, if her mobility deteriorates and she requires 24/7 assistance, Long-Term Care would be the more appropriate choice.




  • When Should I Choose Long-Term Care Over Assisted Living?

    Select Long-Term Care when your loved one has complex medical or personal care needs that cannot be adequately met in an Assisted Living setting. This includes conditions requiring 24/7 supervision or help with most daily tasks. Assisted Living is better suited for those who are still relatively independent and require occasional help.

  • Can Rehabilitation Services Be Included in Long-Term Care?

    Yes. For residents in Long-Term Care, we can include physical therapy, occupational therapy, or other rehabilitation services in their personalized care plans.

  • What is the Admission Process for Long-Term or Transitional Care?

    The process typically involves:


    • Initial Assessment: Our team conducts an evaluation to determine your loved one’s needs.
    • Care Plan Development: Customized plans are created to address medical, social, and emotional requirements.
    • Admission and Orientation: Support to help your loved one settle into their new environment.

  • How Does Insurance Cover These Care Options?

    Coverage varies by care type and individual insurance plans:


    • Long-Term Care: Often covered by Long-Term Care Insurance or paid out-of-pocket; limited Medicaid coverage may be available in some cases.
    • Transitional Care: Usually covered by Medicare or private insurance, as it’s tied to recovery and short-term medical needs.

  • How Will I Know My Loved One is Receiving Quality Care?

    At our Care Center, we ensure quality through:


    • Licensed professionals providing care.
    • Regular family updates and involvement in care planning.
    • Resident-centered focus to meet individual preferences and needs.
