A Tale of Two Hearts, Two Hands, and Two Directions

By: Beth Mace  |  June 20, 2023

I have mixed emotions as I write this blog post announcing that I will be transitioning my role at NIC. After nine years of being on the staff as NIC’s Chief Economist and a comparable number of years being involved with NIC in various roles including being a member of the Board of Directors and the chair of the Research Committee, I will be stepping back to spend more time on other activities.

Memory Care – An In-Depth Analysis of the Sector’s Standing and Dynamics

By: Omar Zahraoui  |  June 15, 2023

According to estimates derived from an analysis released by NIC Analytics in 2022, approximately one in nine Americans aged 65 and older, totaling 6.5 million individuals, are affected by Alzheimer’s or other dementias. The analysis further indicated that the prevalence increased with age, with higher ratios observed in older age cohorts. By projecting the findings to 2030, NIC Analytics estimated that around 8.2 million Americans will be living with Alzheimer’s or other forms of dementia just seven years from now. These estimates highlight the importance of providing tailored and innovative care and support to meet the growing demand for specialized memory care services.
