WHY IS THERE A NEED FOR LONG TERM CARE?
Thanks to medical science and modern medicine, people in America started living longer. As a result of this, elderly population is growing faster than before where 80-plus represents the fastest growing segment in our country. Unfortunately, living-longer has consequences of bringing chronic illnesses (such as strokes or Alzheimer's) along with aging.
Further more, due to economic changes in America, children and relatives have moved away and it became harder for families to live close by or under the same roof as it was years ago (economic conditions even hardly allow children to take off from work to care for their parents). Consequences of living longer combined with the impact of recent economic conditions on the families resulted in an environment where families are unable to meet the needs of their aging parents. Thus elderly must rely on professional help, which comes at a cost.
