ADLs are the basic self-care tasks someone needs to manage in order to live independently: bathing, dressing, toileting, transferring (like moving from bed to chair), eating, and continence.<\/span><\/p>

ADLs are important because many insurance and benefits programs use ADLs to decide eligibility. In fact, most long-term care insurance requires help with at least two ADLs before benefits kick in, and some veterans’ programs require three. If you’re noticing your loved one struggling with these tasks, we can help assess where they stand and what coverage or next steps might apply.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t
