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.
Of the 1,817 subjects in our study sample who resided in a nursing home at the end of life, next-of-kin stated that the physical location of death was the nursing home for 70.4% of subjects, the hospital for 22.6%, in-inpatient hospice facilities for 3.5%, home for 0.4%, and 3.1% died elsewhere.ecedentsâ lengths of stay in nursing homes at the end of life are illustrated in the Figure. The mean length of stay among decedents was 13.7 months; however, this was explained by a relatively small number of subjects with long lengths of stay. The median length of stay was only 5 months (IQR 1-20).
