The current emphasis on nursing facilities in combination with an increasing older population factors into Iowa’s state plan as well, especially considering the impact it has on everything from evacuation plans to aging in place initiatives.<br /> <br /> Other plan highlights include:<br /> Iowa’s State Plan reflects the recent string of natural disasters, exposing the need for better communication between departments, staffing needs, and evacuation plans.<br /> The plan outlines services that are needed but are not provided due to a lack of funding (page 36). One of compelling components of the plan is a listing of how many people are affected by the lack of a service due to lack of funds.

This is a simple and elegant use of “cause and effect” as it relates to age plans. <br /> Since Iowa has one of the largest older populations living in nursing care facilities, they face particularly difficult challenges in implementing initiatives for aging in place.
