CME Credits: 1.00

Released: 2021-06-14

The devastating effects of COVID-19 among older adults residing in long-term care settings have been well documented. Although much attention has been paid to COVID-19–associated mortality in nursing homes, less is understood about its effects on assisted living residents. Most assisted living residents are aged 80 years or older and many have multiple chronic illnesses, making them highly susceptible to poor outcomes of COVID-19. This study examines the excess mortality among a US cohort of assisted living residents during the COVID-19 pandemic.
