Abstract: The goal of this study is to collect data for the residential care community (RCC) and adult day services center (ADSC) survey components of the 6th wave of the National Post-acute and Long-term Care Study (NPALS), formerly known as the National Study of Long-Term Care Providers or NSLTCP. The data to be collected will include the basic characteristics, services, staffing, and practices of RCCs and ADSCs, and the demographics, selected health conditions and health care utilization, physical functioning, and cognitive functioning of RCC residents and ADSC participants. Items on COVID-19 prevalence and experience will be included. This data collection will also include subject matter expert interviews about electronic health record (EHRs) platforms in RCCs and ADSCs. This revision requests to increase sample sizes, make minor revisions to the data collection instruments, and add data retrieval telephone calls.
