These HCBS span a wide range of platforms and approaches, encompassing home health care, assisted living facilities, community-based hospice care, and adult day services. These models offer a preferred alternative to nursing homes, enabling older adults to age in place, prolonging their residency in their own homes and communities.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHome- and Community-Based Services for Older Adults delves into the existing and emerging models of HCBS, providing a comprehensive examination of their history, theory, research, policy, and practices across various care settings.
