Life and Death in Assisted Living
Season 2013

More and more elderly Americans are spending their later years in assisted living, which has sprung up as an alternative to nursing homes.

In an investigation with ProPublica, FRONTLINE examines the nation’s largest assisted living company, raising questions about the drive for profits and fatal lapses in care.
