Monthly number of long-term care service users Japan 2014-2023
In April 2023, the monthly number of people using long-term care services in Japan reached over six million, an increase from around 4.9 million users in the same period in 2014. Long-term services include in-home services, community-based services, and services at facilities. Further growth in the number of users can be expected, as Japanese society is facing a rapidly aging population.
