65岁及以上的西班牙裔人住在养老院的比例从2000年的5%上升到2005年的6.4%。虽然养老院的隔离似乎略有下降，但老年西班牙裔比非西班牙裔白色同龄人更有可能居住在养老院，这些养老院的特点是性能严重不足，人员不足和护理不善。
The proportion of Hispanics age sixty-five and older who are living in nursing homes rose from 5 percent in 2000 to 6.4 percent in 2005. Although segregation in nursing homes seems to have declined slightly, elderly Hispanics are more likely than their non-Hispanic white peers to reside in nursing homes that are characterized by severe deficiencies in performance, understaffing, and poor care.
