People who need both nursing care and assistance with activities of daily living such as bathing, dressing, grooming and incontinence care, can live as long as appropriate in comfortable private or semi-private rooms, decorated with items from their own homes. Most long-term care residents eat their meals in a bright, communal dining room, choosing from a menu that changes daily, and engage in social activities, as well as any needed therapy. Wheelchairs and other adaptive equipment can help residents remain as independent as possible, as long as possible.
