Long-Term Care Resources
As part of the 2023 Shura Proposals and deliberation, Majlis Ansarullah USA has put together some educational content and informational resources in the form of a resource guide.
What is Long-Term Care?
Long-Term Care (LTC) involves personal care and related services to meet an
individual's physical, mental, or emotional needs over an extended period. It is provided
to people who need help with either activities of daily living (ADLs) or supervision due to
severe cognitive impairment.
Activities of daily living (ADLs) include eating, dressing, bathing, toileting, transferring
(such as from bed to chair), and maintaining continence (controlling bowel or bladder
functions). Cognitive impairment refers to a deficiency in one or more areas such as
awareness of place, people, time, or season, remembering shared experiences,
important dates, or recent events, engaging in deductive or abstract reasoning, or
judging conditions or circumstances that present danger.
