Questions and instructions

Question pretext
People who are seriously ill usually need to be given care and assistance. This includes both daily personal care such as help with eating, dressing, bathing, moving around in the house as well as assistance with their affairs outside the house such as transportation to see doctors, going to buy medicine, or managing the ill person's financial situation, health care, emotional well-being or other personal affairs. I want to know who in your household has needed care or support and what level they needed.
Literal question
Over the last 12 months, have any members of your household, adults or children, needed care or support for any reason? This could include financial, physical, emotional, health or personal care or support.***
