Who provides long-term care?

Karl Steinberg (Associate Medical Director, Sharp Mission Park Medical Group) gives expert video advice on: Who provides long-term care?; What long-term care options are available?; What is a long-term care facility? and more...

There are a lot of different sources for that, and again a lot of it has to do with how much support a person has as far as family members, loved ones, and sometimes church groups can be of assistance. But generally there's a whole industry that's devoted to providing long-term care. Obviously nursing and nursing facilities, and then also lower levels of care, like assisted living facilities or residential type settings. There are a whole slew of workers of various types that work in those settings to provide long-term care.
