Long-Term Care is beneficial for any age 18-79 who require assistance to perform basic activities of daily living (ADL's) such as dressing, bathing, eating, toileting, continence, and transferring. When an individual needs assistance with any two of these ADL's, it highly beneficial to have a Long-Term Care policy in place. It secures your peace of mind.
