If we take long term care into account then most of the time it is surely very beneficial for every individual in their older age days. I would suggest that your mother should check relevant details like health, need, age and then choose the right policy according to your state, you will find many options in policies according to state, there are different policies in every state.
The people who goes for long term care might be suffering from any disease, they do not have any care giver in their old age, so these are the points which arise a need for long term insurance.
For a strong support and tension free life in end of age days, every person should go for a long term policy, it will help you and care for you at every step of old age days.

It is a good idea if she can afford it. If she has assets that would go to you upon her death that would save those assets. If she had no insurance she might have to sell, for instance her house, to pay for the long term care.

It covers her if she has to go to a nursing home. Without insurance, she has to pay $7,000 a month for that care or qualify for Medicaid 3 to 5 years before she needs care.

LTC is expensive and you have to be healthy to qualify. There are other types of policies that are much less and will help pay for a caregiver. Search online for an Independent Agent for LTC.

She doesn't need Long Term Care if you or your siblings are willing to give up your jobs to be full time caretakers.
