senior care

Help for elderly

Senior care is the support and assistance provided to elderly people who need help with daily activities, health management, or supervision.

It ranges from in-home help with meals and bathing to full-time residence in nursing facilities.

My parents are looking into senior care options for my grandmother.

The term often appears in discussions of aging, healthcare costs, and family responsibility.
