42 Months vs. 22 Months
It is generally less expensive to care for healthier residents. The healthier the residents are, the less turnover there is with residents by allowing them to stay in the community longer and stay out of the hospital.
Across the industry, the average length of stay in assisted living is 22 months, according to Illumination 2016 Analytics’ 10-year analysis, as presented at the Argentum Senior Living Executive Conference in May 2016.
Live 2 B Healthy proprietary data shows an average length of stay of over 42 months for our assisted living client communities that have been with us 2 years or longer.
