New paper in @JAMAInternalMed!
In it, we use data to examine a commonly held belief about what moving into a nursing home or assisted living facility (also known as a long-term care facility; or LTCF) does to your social life.

I'm proud to announce our new paper!
Moving to a long-term care facility is a major late life decision. I know I've often benefitted from others' advice for my major life decisions. So I wondered: what advice is there for moving into an LTCF?
