In today's episode of Transform, Sage Oak founder and CEO Loe Hornbuckle sits down with SHN's Austin Montgomery and explains why he believes senior living’s future lies in differentiation and personalized service, particularly as a widening gap emerges between premium communities serving residents with greater resources and more commoditized options.

As technology continues to evolve and further support providers’ efforts, the future of senior living and health care will be more closely linked. Indeed, Inspirit Senior Living and other providers can track individual resident health data and respond more quickly to the needs of ancillary health care systems.

By integrating more technology into senior living operations, specifically systems supporting artificial intelligence, Inspirit sees an opportunity for the industry to better serve older adults. This means giving staff more time with residents and families.

“The barrier has always been, in my opinion, technological integration,” Inspirit Senior Living COO Jonathan Barbieri said during the most recent episode of the Senior Housing News Transform podcast.

This year, Inspirit is tackling new growth opportunities with an eye on becoming a super regional provider. Barbieri sat down with SHN to discuss how Inspirit, which manages over 36 communities in 11 states, will tackle its goal of an annual 20% growth rate.
