Long-Term Supports and Services Planning for the Future: Implications From a Statewide Survey of Baby Boomers and Older Adults

Abstract

Policymakers and providers should prepare for a shift in community planning to accommodate the changing plans and expectations of Baby Boomers, large numbers of whom plan to age in existing homes and retirement communities, or live with adult children, with increasing demand for informal family support. The LTSS industry should also adapt to meet the need for formal services, which will likely continue to grow.
