The elderly population in Florida has significantly increased, therefore, as a result, long‐term care needs have also expanded, and a majority of senior Floridians are receiving home healthcare, living in nursing homes, or residing in assisted living facilities (ALFs). While the geriatric population receiving these services has increased, the overall cost and challenges faced by the healthcare providers has skyrocketed. For this project, the University of Florida Bureau of Economic & Business Research (BEBR), commissioned by the Florida Assisted Living Association (FALA), developed, and administered an online survey to assess these eldercare challenges. As a follow-up to the online survey, a telephone survey was conducted to gather more information about Floridians’ financial preparation for residing in an ALF.

Founded in 2008, University of Florida Clinical and Translational Science Institute (UF CTSI) is the academic hub for clinical and translational science throughout the University and the State of Florida. The mission of UF’s CTSI is to improve human health by strengthening the University’s ability to conduct clinical and translational research.
Over one thousand researchers are associated with the CTSI and benefit from its services and resources. This project investigates individual research records on external funding, the number and quality of publications, and follows a quasi-experimental approach to estimate the effects of CTSI’s association on research productivity. Additionally, the project analyzes the expenditures of CTSI along with the associated increase in external funding attracted by CTSI researchers, which contributes to the regional economy of Alachua County and the State of Florida through the creation of jobs, purchases of products / services from local industries, and corresponding household spending.
