"Long-term care" means helping people of any age with their medical needs or daily activities over a long period of time. Long-term care can be provided at home, in the community, or in various types of facilities. This section deals mainly with older people who need long-term care. However, the information also may be useful for younger people with disabilities or illnesses that require long-term care. When you look for long-term care, it is important to remember that quality varies from one place or caregiver to another. It is also important to think about long-term care before a crisis occurs. Making long-term care decisions can be hard even when planned well in advance.

Quick Check for Quality

Look for long-term care that:/

• Has been found by State agencies, accreditors, or others to provide quality care

  Dietary counseling

When your health condition is assessed, skilled nursing facility (SNF) staff prepares or updates your care plan. You (if you're able) and/or your family, or someone acting on your behalf, have the right to take part in planning your care together with the SNF staff. Let the staff know if you want to take part. This helps keep you aware of how the care you get will help you reach your health care goals.

Your care plan may include:

What kind of services you need
What type of health care professional should give you the services
How often you'll need the services
What kind of equipment or supplies you need (like a wheelchair or feeding tube)
If you need a special diet
Your health goal (or goals), and how your care plan will help you reach your goal
