Nursing homes in Cuba are few, poor and underserved
A comparative study of the results between the Census of Population and Housing and the Health Statistical Yearbooks for 2002 and 2012, reveal the increase in the number of elderly people in Cuba and the decreased ability of nursing homes to care for them.
In 2013, only 1 in 274 of the elderly had the possibility of being received full time into nursing homes.
