National Study on the Impact of COVID-19 in Senior Living, Phase II

Grant Summary

The impact of COVID-19 on older adults has been unparalleled in modern history, disproportionately affecting people over the age of 65 and in U.S. nursing homes. However, differences in outcomes for older adults living in congregate settings versus traditional home environments are not well understood. As a follow-up to a June 2021 NORC report comparing COVID-19-related mortality rates for people living in various levels of congregate housing to those in residential homes, the National Investment Center for Seniors Housing & Care will study how demographic factors and health status of older adults influenced COVID-19 mortality rates in congregate living versus community settings.
