Long-term care is for people who require assistance for coping with and participating in their daily lives arising from a decrease in their physical and mental capacity due to ageing or health reasons. Long-term care encompasses various healthcare and social services that prevent the deterioration of the health and abilities of people and assist them in their daily activities and wellbeing.

This report assesses the current state of long-term care in the EU and Estonia constructs future scenarios of the development of Estonia’s long-term care sector. The scenarios are based on information gathered in the literature review, case studies of two EU countries, analysis of interviews and focus groups, and a nation-wide survey.
