Which States Provide The Best—And Worst—Long-Term Care Services?

Minnesota and Washington are the states that provide the best services and supports for frail older adults, younger people with disabilities, and their families, according to a new study by AARP. The worst performers: Alabama and West Virginia.

AARP defines superior supports and services as those that are affordable and accessible, give families a choice of high-quality and safe care settings including their own homes, provide assistance for family caregivers, and are well-integrated with their communities.
