Two Studies Released

MetLife Mature Market Institute released its 2009 "Survey of Nursing Home, Assisted Living, Adult Day Services and Home Care Costs" and its “Long-Term Care IQ: Removing Myths, Reinforcing Realities” report. According to the press release, the survey indicates the public is not knowledgeable about long term care and many misconceptions endure.
This survey of nursing homes, conducted in conjunction with LifePlans, Inc., contains daily private-pay rates for private and semi-private rooms in licensed nursing homes, monthly base rates for assisted living communities, hourly rates for home health aides from licensed agencies and agency-provided homemaker companion services, and daily rates for adult day services across the United States.
