The UK has an ageing population – for the Residential Nursing Care industry, this is an opportunity for growth with demand for more beds expanding. Homes have upped their average weekly fees, contributing to revenue. High inflation over the two years through 2023-24 has raised fees further. However, state involvement has limited growth, which has kept care fees artificially low for many nursing home residents. Residential nursing care revenue is anticipated to remain stable at £9.3 billion over the five years through 2024-25, including revenue growth of 3% in 2024-25. Weak government funding and wage cost pressures caused by the rising National Living Wage (which will increase to £12.21 in April 2025) have constrained profitability. Labour supply shortages caused by high turnover rates have been of particular concern. According to Skills For Care, the job vacancy rate in 2023-24 in the adult care sector was 8.3%, way above the average rate in the UK economy. That being said, the vacancy rate is declining thanks mainly to a government-driven recruitment drive to attract overseas workers, which has been helped by reducing visa requirements. Rising real household disposable income had supported more self-funded residents, aiding residential nursing care. However, data from the ONS revealed the percentage of self-funded residents fell from 36.7% in 2019-20 to 34.9% over the year through February 2022. In the year through February 2023, this has risen again to 37% of the 372,035 care home residents. Families are still struggling with the rising cost of living, reducing the number of people able to afford private care home costs, which has somewhat constrained revenue growth. Over the five years through 2029-30, residential and nursing care revenue is estimated to expand at a compound annual rate of 4.1% to £11.4 billion. Robust demand from an ageing population will support industry growth. However, plans for adult social care reforms are to be released in two stages (the first in 2026 and the second in 2028), which has caused greater uncertainty for the sector's future. Staff shortage concerns will continue to plague nursing care.

Number of council-supported permanent admissions of adults aged 65 and over to residential and nursing care divided by the size of the adult population (aged 65 and over) in the area multiplied by 100,000. People counted as a permanent admission include: Residents where the local authority makes any contribution to the costs of care, no matter how trivial the amount and irrespective of how the balance of these costs are metSupported residents in: Local authority-staffed care homes for residential careIndependent sector care homes for residential careRegistered care homes for nursing careResidential or nursing care which is of a permanent nature and where the intention is that the spell of care should not be ended by a set date. For people classified as permanent residents, the care home would be regarded as their normal place of residence. Where a person who is normally resident in a care home is temporarily absent at 31 March (e.g. through temporary hospitalisation) and the local authority is still providing financial support for that placement, the person should be included in the numerator. Trial periods in residential or nursing care homes where the intention is that the stay will become permanent should be counted as permanent. Whether a resident or admission is counted as permanent or temporary depends on the intention of the placement at the time of admission. The transition from ASC-CAR to SALT resulted in a change to which admissions were captured by this measure, and a change to the measure definition. 12-week disregards and full cost clients are now included, whereas previously they were excluded from the measure. Furthermore, whilst ASC-CAR recorded the number of people who were admitted to residential or nursing care during the year, the relevant SALT tables record the number of people for whom residential/nursing care was planned as a sequel to a request for support, a review, or short-term support to maximise independence Only covers people receiving partly or wholly supported care from their Local Authority and not wholly private, self-funded care. Data source: SALT. Data is Powered by LG Inform Plus and automatically checked for new data on the 3rd of each month.

In the United States, one in four patients were enrolled a total of 5 days or less in hospice before they passed away*. Yet one in ten received care for more than 275 days across their lifetime. Hospice care involves caring for those who are terminally ill. Such care usually does not include treatment but focuses instead on making the end of life as comfortable as possible. Hospice teams can include nurses, home health aides, social workers and physicians. Hospice providers Hospice care can be provided at the patient’s home or in a facility, such as a nursing home, assisted living, hospital or hospice care center. In 2022, there were around 5,899 Medicare certified hospices in the United States. The large majority of theses are freestanding independent hospices, while a much smaller portion are part of a hospital system or part of a home health agency. Hospice patients In 2022, there were around 1.72 million hospice patients in the U.S. Female Medicare beneficiaries were more likely than male to use hospice services. Expectedly, older adults (over 84 years) were more likely to be a hospice patient than younger peers. The most common diagnoses were neurological and cancer

Aging is associated with changes to the immune system, collectively termed immunosenescence and inflammageing. However, the relationships among age, frailty, and immune parameters in older people resident in care homes are not well described. We assessed immune and inflammatory parameters in 184 United Kingdom care home residents aged over 65 years and how they relate to age, frailty index, and length of care home residence. Linear regression was used to identify the independent contribution of age, frailty, and length of care home residence to the various immune parameters as dependent variables. Participants had a mean age (±SD) of 85.3 ± 7.5 years, had been residing in the care home for a mean (±SD) of 1.9 ± 2.2 years at the time of study commencement, and 40.7% were severely frail. Length of care home residence and frailty index were correlated but age and frailty index and age and length of care home residence were not significantly correlated. All components of the full blood count, apart from total lymphocytes, were within the reference range; 31% of participants had blood lymphocyte numbers below the lower value of the reference range. Among the components of the full blood count, platelet numbers were positively associated with frailty index. Amongst plasma inflammatory markers, C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra), soluble E-selectin and interferon gamma-induced protein 10 (IP-10) were positively associated with frailty. Plasma soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (sVCAM-1), IP-10 and tumor necrosis factor receptor II (TNFRII) were positively associated with age. Plasma monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 was positively associated with length of care home residence. Frailty was an independent predictor of platelet numbers, plasma CRP, IL-1ra, IP-10, and sE-selectin. Age was an independent predictor of activated monocytes and plasma IP-10, TNFRII and sVCAM-1. Length of care home residence was an independent predictor of plasma MCP-1. This study concludes that there are independent links between increased frailty and inflammation and between increased age and inflammation amongst older people resident in care homes in the United Kingdom. Since, inflammation is known to contribute to morbidity and mortality in older people, the causes and consequences of inflammation in this population should be further explored.

In 2023, a hospital stay of patients requiring long-term nursing care in Japan had an average length of 295.7 days, while patients with common diseases stayed in hospitals for 15.7 days on average. That year, the average length of stay in hospitals of all patients amounted to 26.3 days.

Independent living can become challenging for people experiencing cognitive decline. With reduced functioning and greater care needs, many people with dementia (PWD) may need to move to another home with better safety features, move to live closer to or with relatives who can provide care, or enter a nursing home. Housing plays a key role in supporting quality of life for both PWD and their caregivers, so the ability to move when needed is crucial for their well-being. Yet the substantial costs of moving, housing, and care mean that PWD with limited financial resources may be unable to afford moving, exacerbating inequalities between more and less advantaged PWD. Emerging qualitative research considers the housing choices of PWD and their caregivers, yet little is known on a broader scale about the housing transitions PWD actually make over the course of cognitive decline. Prior quantitative research focuses specifically on nursing home admissions; questions remain about how often PWD move to another home or move in with relatives. This study investigates socioeconomic and racial/ethnic disparities in the timing and type of housing transitions among PWD in the United States, using Health and Retirement study data from 2002 through 2016. We find that over half of PWD move in the years around dementia onset (28% move once, and 28% move twice or more) while 44% remain in place. Examining various types of moves, 35% move to another home, 32% move into nursing homes, and 11% move in with relatives. We find disparities by educational attainment and race/ethnicity: more advantaged PWD are more likely to move to another home and more likely to enter a nursing home than less advantaged groups. This highlights the importance of providing support for PWD and their families to transition into different living arrangements as their housing needs change.

According to Cognitive Market Research, the global Retirement Home Services market is growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.90% from 2023 to 2030. Rising Global Life Expectancy Is Driving The Growth of the Market

People are living longer lives than they were a few decades ago. This is due to low rates of cardiovascular and infectious disease mortality. The majority of deaths in the world were caused by three primary health conditions: ischemic heart disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and stroke.

Since the 1990s, the average number of fatalities has grown. The number of people dying from illnesses such as heart disease has increased as the world population has grown.

The decrease in age-specific mortality rates for various illnesses is evidence of the healthcare industry's success.Life expectancy increases as a result of breakthroughs in public healthcare facilities and significant developments in the healthcare business, as well as higher living standards, increased nutrition, better education, and lifestyle changes. An individual's global average age is mostly determined by living conditions and place of residence. These factors will boost market growth during the forecast period.

Technological Developments Will Boost Market Expansion

During the forecast period, technological advancements in long-term healthcare are anticipated to propel market expansion. This is brought on by the increase in Internet usage, which has sparked the development of online marketplaces, mobile apps, and mHealth. There is a rising need for support services including smartphone apps, trackers, wearables, communication tools, and smart alarms. These tools allow nurses and caregivers to monitor, document, and observe patients as well as connect with medical specialists.The use of computer and mobile phone-based patient data management among these technologies is spreading throughout long-term care.

Apps that create electronic health records (EHRs) and mobile health records (MHRs) are now available, making it simpler for consumers and healthcare professionals to access and exchange health information.

(Source:health-e.in/blog/phr-apps-india/)

The main technological advancements are mHealth and mobile-based healthcare applications that produce electronic health records (EHRs) and mobile health records (MHRs). When there are medical emergencies, other technologies, like alarm integration methods, are employed to notify service providers and caregivers. As they lessen the dependency on carers, smart houses are becoming more popular in industrialized nations. Thus, the market's expansion over the course of the forecast period will be fueled by the rising acceptance of such cutting-edge technical solutions.

The Aspects of the Retirement Home Services Market are Limitingits Growth

Negative Reputation Of Retirement Homes Is A Significant Barrier To Market Growth

Though living in the comfort of one's own home is always preferable, living in an old age home has its advantages. However, just a few old age facilities provide the bare minimum of quality for a comfortable stay. The cost of services supplied by old age homes is heavily influenced by the quality of those services. Many individuals enroll in retirement homes that lack basic infrastructure and services because they cannot afford the hefty service fees. Residents at nursing facilities are rarely given privacy. The environment in certain nursing facilities frequently results in despair, boredom, neglect, and, in some cases, abuse.

Impact of COVID-19 on The Retirement Home Services Market

Due to the risk of getting the virus in communal living arrangements, the pandemic has reduced demand for retirement homes. However, the epidemic has increased demand for retirement homes that provide specialized nursing care services. Retirement homes that provide specialized services for nursing care are growing more popular as individuals seek a safe and comfortable place to live. Introduction of Retirement Home Services

A retirement home is a multi-residence living complex designed for the elderly, sometimes known as an old people's home or old age home. Everyone or a couple resides in a room or suite of rooms that is akin to an apartment. There are more facilities in the building. This will include places for gathering, eating, playing, and receiving some kind of healt...

In 2023, the annual median cost for long-term care in the United States ranged from 24,700 to 116,800 U.S. dollars, depending on the type of service. Long-term health care can be provided in various environments such as nursing homes, community and assisted living facilities, or at-home care. Nursing homes, community, and assisted living facilities in the U.S. The most expensive long-term care services in the U.S. was nursing homes. In the U.S., the annual cost for a semi-private room in a nursing home stood at 104,025 U.S. dollars. With an annual cost of 54,200 U.S dollars, a single bedroom in an assisted living facility was cheaper than a nursing home. However, from one state to another, the cost of a room in a nursing home varied greatly. For instance, a semi-private room in an Alaskan nursing home nearly reached 224,500 U.S. dollars in 2023. Home care services Instead of moving into a nursing home or retirement residence, care at home is often the more preferred option. Home care services typically include either home health aide or homemaker services. In 2023, the annual cost of homemaker services reached an average of 68,640 U.S. dollars, whereas the cost for home health aide services was roughly 75,500 U.S. dollars. As with nursing homes, the cost for in-home care services such as homemaker services varied greatly depending on the State. In Washington, the annual cost for homemaker services reached 99,528 U.S. dollars in 2023.

In fiscal year 2023-2024, the ages of residents in continuing care facilities (usually long-term care facilities in residential or hospital-based settings) in Canada averaged to around 83 years. Residents in hospital-based continuing care were slightly younger than those in residential facilities, with residents in Manitoba having the highest average age.

The number of hospital beds in the United Kingdom has undergone a decline since the year 2000. Whereas in 2000, there were around 240 thousand beds in the UK, by 2020 this figure was approximately 163 thousand. This means over this period there were over 80 thousand fewer hospital beds in the UK. However in the recent years since 2020, the number of hospital beds have been increasing, the first time in the recorded time period.

Fewer beds but admissions are still high

There were almost 16.4 million admissions to hospital between April 2022 to March 2023 in England. The number of admissions has recovered somewhat since the drop in year 2020/21. The busiest hospital trust in England by admissions in the year 2022/23 was the University Hospitals Birmingham Foundation Trust with over 333 thousand admissions. The average length of stay in hospitals in the UK in 2021 for acute care was seven days.

Accident and Emergency

In the first quarter of 2023/24, A&E in England received around 6.5 million attendees. The number of attendances has been creeping upwards since 2012. Around 2.4 percent of people attending A&E in the last year were diagnosed with an upper respiratory condition, followed by 1.8 percent with a lower respiratory tract infection.
