Long-Term Care Planning Tool Search Help
In order to assist you in narrowing down your long-term care program choices, here are some tips for using the Long-Term Care Planning tool:
Navigation
There are 2 new ways you can move around within the site:
-
Breadcrumbs Navigation Trail: Breadcrumbs tell you where you are in relation to the rest of the website by showing a path or trail of the pages you visit. Breadcrumbs consist of hyperlinks to the main web pages you visit so that you can quickly move around the site without having to use your browser's "back" button. An example of a breadcrumb navigation bar appears below. This example tells you that you are at the "Results" page.
Search > Results
-
Tabbed Menu Bar: In the upper portion of the web page you will see different "tabs" with linking words on each tab, going horizontally across the page. These tabs take you to information about the particular area you are at in the website. The tab that is highlighted indicates the page you are on while the others are "faded" in the background. An example of a tabbed menu navigation bar appears below. This example tells you that you are within the Resources section of the Long-Term Care Planning tool.
Results
- The "Project Costs" page under the My Report tab contains the expected costs for your long-term care based on the answers you provided.
- The "Services" page contains information about services available to meet various aspects of your long-term care needs.
- The "Financing" page contains information about options available for financing your long-term care.
Choosing the Font Size
At the top of your screen, select: View, Fonts (if you are using Microsoft Internet Explorer) at the top of your screen; or Options, General Preferences, Fonts (if you are using Netscape) at the top of your screen.
Choose a font that is comfortable for you to see. A medium font will fit most charts on one page. If you choose a large font, the print may be easier to read, but you may have to scroll from left to right to see some parts of the charts.
Thank you for using the Long-Term Care Planning tool. We hope it will make your long-term care decisions easier.
