60% of Seniors Want Home Care—Not Facilities (Dallas Stats Families Need)
Do most seniors prefer home care over facilities? A recent Home Health Care News survey shows 60% of adults 65+ choose at-home care if needs increase, with other studies finding 77–92% of 50+ wanting to stay home. At Care Mountain Home Healthcare in Dallas, Texas, we make this preference reality for dementia families.
Only 18% picked assisted living; just 1% wanted nursing homes.
Why home care wins in Dallas:
- Stay in familiar surroundings that reduce dementia confusion.
- One-on-one care vs. facility staff shortages.
- Often more affordable with LTC insurance coverage.
