This branch of care is referred to as just that "long term care". It includes nursing homes and assisted living facilities. Assisted living facilities are one step down from a nursing home. Residents must have a slightly higher level of function in order to qualify for admittance to assisted living facilities. Nursing homes provide care for individuals who will most likely never again reach a reasonable level of functioning. Hospice houses provide care for terminally ill patients who are near death.
