DOWNLOAD EBOOK →At least half of all nursing home residents in the United States have dementia. In response to pervasive complaints and concerns about the care received by many residents with dementia, about 10% of U.S. nursing homes have established a special care unit - that is - a physically separate unit in the nursing home is intended to provide appropriate care to these residents. The report discusses the complaints and concerns that have led to the development and proliferation of special care units, the characteristics of existing special care units, and the available information about their effectiveness and cost. It analyzes the problems and opportunities created by the proliferation of special care units and discusses the ways in which the Federal Government has responded and could respond to these problems and opportunities.
