The ability of people who are elderly to live in the least restrictive environment is enhanced when options in addition to nursing homes are available. This indicator, which tracks the nursing home population in proportion to the population ages 60 and over, is an indirect measure of the availability and usage of less restrictive living arrangements. The value is derived from the results of a survey conducted by the Scripps Gerontology Center at Miami University. The survey is not conducted every year.
