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.
2000 年至 2005 年，65 岁及以上的西班牙裔美国人入住养老院的比例从 5%上升到 6.4%。尽管养老院中的隔离现象似乎略有减少，但与非西班牙裔白人同龄人相比，西班牙裔老年人更有可能居住在服务质量严重不足、人手不足和护理水平差的养老院中。
