“CDC data show how small, large assisted living communities differ,” by Lois A. Bowers, McKnight’s Senior Living

“Smaller assisted living communities, on average, have more residents who need assistance with activities of daily living, more residents with Alzheimer’s disease or depression, more residents who are Medicaid beneficiaries and younger residents compared with larger communities, according to a data brief published Tuesday by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s National Center for Health Statistics.”

LTC Comment (from Stephen A. Moses, President, Center for Long-Term Care Reform):

Can you afford to stay out of that little board and care home across town and get into the big, beautiful, Victorian ALF nearby?
