One of my greatest passions as an advisor/mentor/coach is to create an excitement…a buzz…a quest for understanding. There is nothing more rewarding than to see that “Aha!” moment in a residency counselor’s eyes; the realization that he/she “gets it” and now knows how to share it with prospective residents. Creative and critical thinking enables counselors to better understand the options that our customers are weighing.
As senior living continues to evolve to meet the desires and needs of the changing customer, there’s a promising traffic pattern starting to emerge that gives me hope for the future: the four-way intersection of great housing, hospitality, healthcare and holistic wellness.
