Question pretext
8.0 Caring for persons with prolonged illness.



In the following questions, I would like to find out how families and households cope and support each other through prolonged illnesses. People who are ill may need care and assistance from others. This includes both daily personal care at home, assistance outside the house such as go to see a doctor, going to buy medicines, health care, emotional well-being or other personal activities.
