Why is the need for geriatric care facilities growing and will continue to do so?

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the population aged 65 and older grew by over a third between 2010 and 2020, making it the fastest-growing age segment. This demographic shift is a primary factor explaining why the need for geriatric care facilities is growing and will continue to do so, driven by increased life expectancy and complex healthcare needs.
