Challenges and opportunities in providing hospice care in assisted living facilities

Description

Abstract:
As the population of elderly adults in the United States continues to increase as well as the number of patients living with chronic disease, there will be an increased need for long-term care services, including hospice care in assisted living facilities. The aim of this study was to identify challenges in this area, with a specific focus on attitudes about, and experiences in, hospice care in assisted living facilities.
