If there is one industry that will always be in demand, it’s health care. Even as businesses worldwide closed their doors during the COVID-19 pandemic, providers everywhere continued to care for their patients and their families.
Not only is it a rewarding field to be in, but it’s only continuing to grow. Before the pandemic began, the aging population and their families sought alternatives to rehabilitation facilities and nursing homes. The reason is quite simple– people, especially as they grow older and become more dependent on others– are much more comfortable in their own homes.
What the Future Holds for the Home Healthcare Industry
According to a recent report, the global population is getting older. The life expectancy in the U.S. has risen in recent years, and every day, thousands of Baby Boomers are becoming senior citizens.
Today, there are almost 15 million U.S. citizens over 80. By the year 2050, that number is expected to double. With the aging population will come a higher demand for senior medical care.
Financially, home care is one of the fastest-growing sectors, and even in the middle of the pandemic last year, it was a $97 billion market. The global home care market is expected to have a compound annual growth rate of 9.5% within the next five years. Not only is demand increasing, but North America has the highest market share.
