Description:

This indicator shows reliance on external services among those with long-term care responsibilities during and before the pandemic. Long-term care refers to care for older persons or people with a disability. Reliance is defined as a person using at least one of the services at least once a week.

It is based on the question: “How often do you rely on the following external services and resources for the care of older people or people with limitations in their usual activities due to health problems and/or with disabilities? 1. Residential long-term care facilities, 2. Daycare centre, 3. Home-based personal care workers, 4. Domestic cleaners and helpers, 5. Nurse and/or health care assistants, 6. Social worker, 7. Relatives, neighbours, friends” These response options are also aggregated under the option 'Any time of support'.
