Ready or Not: Transitioning from Institutional Care to Community Care
Authors:Noelle L Fields  Keith A Anderson  Holly Dabelko-Schoeny

Abstract:Federal legislation has moved toward the support and expansion of home- and community-based alternatives to nursing home placement. Despite the seemingly positive nature of these efforts, the question remains as to whether individuals, families, and communities are prepared for this shift in long-term care. Furthermore, there has been a lack of attention to the impact of nursing home transition programs on family caregivers, community resources, and the availability of appropriate housing alternatives. Although nursing home transition programs offer a promising alternative to institutional care, the authors suggest a closer examination of the policies and practicality of these transitions is needed.
