The length of stay data were striking: the median length of stay in a nursing home before death was 5 months. the average length of stay was longer at 14 months due to a small number of study participants who had very long lengths of stay. 65% died within 1 year of nursing home admission. 53% died within 6 months of nursing home admission.
The average length of stay is just that, an average. There is no particular reason why you would necessarily expect to spend this average length of time in a nursing home, but it is a useful benchmark to consider. Data compiled by the National Nursing Home Survey places the average length of stay at 835 days. To look at some of the extremes, the American Association for Long-Term Care Insurance tells us that one out of every 10 nursing home residents between the ages of 75 and 84 will spend at least five years receiving care.
