Description:

This dataset shows the percentage distribution (%) of the respondents' main long-term care recipients by their relationship to their care provider.

Long-term care refers to a range of supportive services and medical assistance provided to individuals who require extended or ongoing help with activities of daily living, for a minimum of three months.

Respondents were asked "What is your main care recipient’s relationship to you?" They selected one option from the following list:

  • Child (including step-child and adopted child)
  • Spouse/partner
  • Parent, parent-in-law, stepparent, grandparent
  • Other relative/in-law person (e.g. grandchild, cousin, nephew, niece, uncle, aunt, sibling, child-in-law)
  • Other non-relative (e.g. friend, neighbour)
