Long term care is something you may need if you can no longer perform everyday tasks by yourself. For example, there may come a time when you need help getting dressed, eating or bathing. It also includes the kind of care you would need if you had a severe cognitive impairment like Alzheimer's disease. You can receive this care in a variety of settings, including your home, an assisted living facility or a nursing home.
If you, your spouse or family member were to need long term care, the cost could deplete more than your own hard-earned assets. Without long term care insurance, the financial burden of caring for you could fall on your family.
