As we continue to celebrate our reopening after all that we have gone through, let’s make sure that everyone in our community is enjoying this process and its benefits whether it is our elders, their families or our care partners.

Optimizing the assessment process empowers staff. They will be able to see what engagement works for each resident by understanding their unique abilities versus challenges.

Linked Senior is excited to launch the first of its kind Resident Engagement Institute so that prescription of social engagement can become the standard for senior living resident engagement.

To maximize the return on investment, providers need to embrace resident engagement as an organization-wide strategy, invite Elders and team members to be citizens of their community and support their most valuable resource: the people actually showing up at work and collaborating with Elders every day.

As our industry rebuilds quality of life for the elders we serve, TimeSlips partnered with the #ActivitiesStrong initiative led by Linked Senior to launch Shine Your Light – a celebration to illuminate the industry with creative care and celebrate activity and life enrichment professionals and their residents.

Activity and life enrichment professionals need to articulate their value from a business perspective and the community’s leadership team needs to incorporate these conversations into their strategies. This conversation is critical because when it is successful, every resident can live meaningfully without fear of failure to thrive.
