Preliminary Survey Summary |
There were 48 participants. Summary information is as follows. Please note, the most common responses were tallied. Responses that were only stated once were not included.
I thought the results and answers were interesting. Almost.. the same reasons for an older adult to move to Assisted Living as a Nursing home facility.
I doubt that is what either wants to convey to general public! Assisted Living, in my opinion, want to give the impression that it’s the first step to being cared for not necessarily a place to move to because you can no longer care for yourself.. just safer place.
I’d like to hear feedback from experts in the elder care industry.. if they too find this study and its results surprising.
Thank you,
Carol
Dear Carol,
The information provided in the feedback was directly from the responses given by the 48 participants. I agree with you that the findings are interesting, but I admit I’m not altogether surprised.
This information shows that there is a need to provide more education and information about care options - to let the general public know more about in-home care, assisted living, and nursing home care.
We are continuing to analyze the responses and will provide additional feedback about the responses.
Best,
Debbie
