An analysis of the regulation of board and care homes suggests that much of this care (including assisted living) is unlicensed (Hawes et al., 1995), although there are approximately 34,000 licensed board and care homes with more than 613,000 beds. The report calls for improvements in quality through licensure with or without heavy regulation, and indicates that broad State regulation and licensure of board and care homes may be necessary to improve the safety, quality of life, and quality of care. For example, the report indicates that 40 percent of board and care residents are cognitively impaired and 41 percent are on major psychotropic medications without adequate medical or nursing monitoring.
