Possibly, a caregiver living with a patient can assist with activities of daily living which the patient could not have done independently, resulting in being able to live at home longer. Providing support to unmarried patients, who do not have a caregiver living with them, by home care services specialized in Huntington\u2019s disease might increase the chance of the best possible care before institutionalization and postpone nursing home admission.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.3233\/jhd-180305","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,7,31]],"date-time":"2018-07-31T18:35:09Z","timestamp":1533062109000},"page":"251-257","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Marriage as Protector for Nursing Home Admission in Huntington\u2019s Disease"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"7","author":[{"given":"Jessica Y.","family":"Winder","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurology, Leiden University Medical Center, Leiden, The Netherlands"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Wilco P.","family":"Achterberg","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Public Health and Primary Care, Leiden University Medical Center, Leiden, The Netherlands"},{"name":"Huntington Center Topaz Overduin, Katwijk, The Netherlands"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Raymund A.C.","family":"Roos","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurology, Leiden University Medical Center, Leiden, The Netherlands"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,7,31]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_2_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0092-8674(93)90585-E"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/1750-1172-5-40"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.brainresbull.2006.10.022"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/mds.870110509"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1212\/01.WNL.0000052992.58107.67"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/mds.23716"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jamda.2014.01.010"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_9_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00228-017-2384-2"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_10_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.archger.2018.01.005"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_11_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/mds.870110204"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_12_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/mds.25678"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_13_2","article-title":"Multilingual aphasia examination manual","author":"Benton AL","year":"1978","unstructured":"BentonAL, HamsherK DeS.
