Long-Term Care Confidence

Planning for long-term care can be challenging, and recent research shows that confidence in these plans often varies by age. According to the "Leading Tomorrow: 2024 Long-Term Care Consumer Study" by OneAmerica Financial, only 17% of people aged 60 or older feel confident about their long-term care plans. However, 55% of those aged 40 to 49 say they are confident in their plans.

The survey also revealed that most people prefer staying at home if they need care in the future, with 53% saying they would expect care at home and only 31% expecting to need assisted living. Many people want to stay in their own homes as they age but are unsure how to achieve that.
