Wealthy people were cared for when they were disabled, of course.
Poorer people were often cared for in monasteries or monastery hospitals. In the Byzantine Empire, there were hospitals that were much better than those in the West, and many chronically ill people were cared for in them.
There was a relationship of obligation between the lords and the serfs in the West, and the serfs supposedly had a right to live on the land. Presumably this included being provided for and protected in old age and infirmity, though there were doubtless those who tried to avoid this responsibility.
Guilds had provisions for paying for upkeep of retired and disabled members.
And finally, of course, there were numbers of people who just fell through the cracks, as they say, and were without help in deep trouble.
