Understanding when long-term care becomes necessary can be a challenging and emotional journey for families. Long-term care refers to a range of services and support provided to individuals who are unable to perform basic daily activities due to chronic illness, disability or aging, allowing them to maintain their quality of life by assisting with tasks like bathing, dressing, eating and transferring. It is crucial to recognize the signs that indicate a loved one might need additional support to maintain their quality of life. At Destination Health and Rehabilitation facility, we understand that this transition can be daunting, and we are here to provide the compassionate support families need during this time.
