Three long-term care options are available to individuals depending on their care needs:
- Personal care homes – for-profit businesses that usually provide a lower level of nursing and personal care to residents than Nursing homes.
- Nursing homes – Long Term Care Facilities
- Protective Community Residences
Admission to long-term care facilities is taken care of by the office of placement services through a single-entry system.
