healthcare system and long-term care
A healthcare system refers to the organized network of facilities, medical professionals, and institutions that work together to provide medical services and treatment to individuals. It involves various components such as hospitals, clinics, pharmacies, doctors, nurses, and other support staff, along with insurance providers and government bodies responsible for healthcare regulations. Long-term care, on the other hand, refers to a range of services that support individuals with chronic illnesses, disabilities, or other conditions that require ongoing assistance over an extended period. It focuses on helping individuals perform daily activities, manage their health, and maintain their quality of life. Long-term care services can be provided at home, in assisted living facilities, nursing homes, or specialized care facilities tailored to meet the unique needs of individuals.
