Care for Aged Grows During Last Decade New York—Care for the aged on the part of Jewish voluntary services has greatly increased during the last decade, according to a survey released by the Council of Jewish Federations and Welfare Funds. The survey indicates that the number of homes for the aged, their bed capacity and special rehabilitation services have increased sharply and will continue to increase. Demands for personal services and assistance to older men and women also rose strikingly. Many family agencies have expanded their services to older persons so that aged now constitute about one-third or more of those being served.
