Abstract

The doubling of the 85+ cohorts by the year 2000, and the further similar growth of the 75+ cohorts is causing a major health care crisis. Up to 40 percent of the elderly institutionalized may be inappropriately placed; a more effective approach, and options for home-based care are needed. Congregate housing is one major option for low and moderate income elderly, particularly for those living in Federal of locally-subsidized housing. The current, successful Congregate Housing Services Program should be ameded and expanded into a new Federal/State PARTNERSHIP for congregate housing.
