Overview
Senior care is a large and growing industry in the United States. Growth is primarily predicated on demographic shifts, with an aging population likely to need both general and specialized living assistance. The industry includes a wide range of services, from independent living and assisted living to skilled nursing and hospice care. Most long-term care offerings of various stripes are also generally understood to be part of the senior care industry.
While the senior care industry faces a variety of challenges, including staffing shortages, regulatory pressures, and rising costs, there are also numerous opportunities for growth. Advances in technology, such as telemedicine, artificial intelligence, and remote patient monitoring, offer new ways to provide care and improve efficiency. Additionally, the demand for non-medical services, such as home modifications and social engagement programs, presents growth avenues.
