"The most comprehensive study of RC/AL ever undertaken... Policy makers, educators, advocates, and service providers along the continuum of care for older adults will find this work impressive."
(Susan Daggett Inside GCM)"This study is the largest, most comprehensive study of residential care/assisted living ever undertaken."
(Georg Gottschalk Housing Studies)"In bringing together and analyzing a large amount of data concerning the status of assisted living and the changing nature of long-term care in the United States―based upon the editors' soundly designed, multi-state study―this volume makes an original and substantial contribution to the field. This book will appeal to health care planners and policy makers, as well as to students and teachers in gerontology."
(Richard Bennett, M.D., The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine)With the number of elderly persons needing long-term care expected to double to 14 million over the next two decades, assisted living has become the popular choice for housing or care. Assisted living represents a promising model of long-term care that blurs the sharp distinction between nursing homes and community-based care and reduces the gap between receiving long-term care in one's own home and in an "institution."
Assisted Living: Needs, Practices, and Policies in Residential Care for the Elderly examines the evolving field of residential care and focuses on national issues of regulation, reimbursement, and staffing. The book is based on a four-state study of assisted living facilities and describes the facilities, the persons residing in them and their needs, and how the services vary by facility. Because one-third to two-thirds of residents in assisted living facilities have cognitive impairment, special attention is devoted to dementia care. The book also focuses on how today's long-term health care environment evolved, and it examines the future direction and implications of assisted living.
Assisted Living: Needs, Practices, and Policies in Residential Care for the Elderly brings together a group of nationally recognized experts to help define the types of residential care that should be encouraged and sets guidelines for selecting an appropriate type of facility.
