CDC updates report on assisted living community characteristics,” by Lois A. Bowers, McKnight’s Senior Living

“A new report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s National Center for Health Statistics sheds light on the characteristics of the 28,900 assisted living and similar residential care communities that were providing long-term care services as of 2016. The report, titled ‘Long-Term Care Providers and Services Users in the United States: 2015-2016’  (PDF), is ‘intended to inform policy makers, providers, researchers, consumer advocates, the media, foundations, and others to inform planning for long-term care services,’ according to the authors.”
