The statistics above show that people who are dependent on others prefer to receive care at home, avoiding the need to attend care centres or residences.

 

Despite the need for professional care, the numbers of those who actually receive it remain low.

For this reason, focusing on care in the home is vital in achieving a better quality of life and personal autonomy.
