If you reside in a retirement home, you may claim attendant care expenses (as medical expenses) for a portion of your fees paid. You can claim the fees for salaries and wages paid for attendant care services or care or supervision. The administration office for the retirement facility can provide you with the correct amount of fees to claim.
