Among the various kinds of geriatric care services in the market, the segment of home care services is growing at the fastest clip. This is because of the convenience it accords – the option to stay at home and get proper care, which has particularly helped the elderly, whose population is growing by the day. Besides, limited number of assisted living communities and nursing homes are also benefiting this segment. From a geographical standpoint, North America is a leading region not just because of a large geriatric population in the region but also because of the numerous players, providing state-of-the-art facilities, being domiciled in the region.
Changing Family Structures in Western World Majorly Fuels Market
At the forefront of driving demand in the market for geriatric care services is obviously a large pool elderly people worldwide which is growing by the day. Elaborates the lead analyst of the report, “The change in the family structure, particularly in the developed nations, has led to the lessening of the care provided by family members. This again is mainly because of the busy lifestyle of the younger population. This coupled with their increasing incomes and government funding in building and operating such facilities for the elderly has resulted in many of them opting for geriatric care services.”
