We’re still processing all the great conversations, insights, and connections from this year’s Argentum Senior Living Executive Conference. What an incredible few days spent alongside so many passionate leaders committed to advancing the future of senior living and healthcare. Our team had a wonderful time getting the opportunity to connect with partners and industry peers who share our commitment to improving care for older adults. A special thank you to everyone who listened in on Dr. Timothy Puri’s panel discussion alongside LifeLoop’s Rob Fisher and Watermark Retirement Communities’ Lee Ann Collins MSN, RN. The thoughtful questions and engaging panel around social wellness, resident experience, and holistic person-centered care made for an incredibly valuable conversation. Thank you as well to the many partners who took the time to connect with our team at the conference. If we didn’t get the chance to chat, we’d still love to hear from you!

What's the financial impact of value-based care in senior living? The results speak for themselves. When senior living communities and primary care teams align through an ACO partnership, everyone benefits. In just one year, one community experienced: - Occupancy growth from 92% to 98% - Increased average length of stay from 22 to 25 months - 29% growth in NOI driven by longer resident tenure - Reduced staff strain and turnover - Greater resident stability and stronger family communication By focusing on improved care coordination, reduced hospitalizations, and proactive clinical engagement onsite, value-based care partnerships can create meaningful operational and clinical outcomes.

With National Nurses Week and National Skilled Nursing Care Week drawing to a close, we recognize the clinicians and care teams who make exceptional senior care possible every day. 💜 We are grateful for the expertise, empathy, and commitment of the dedicated nurses and skilled nursing care teams we work with across the communities we serve. Thank you for all you do to improve the health, happiness, and dignity of residents nationwide.

Curana Health is headed to Argentum's Senior Living Executive Conference in Nashville next week!   On Tuesday, don’t miss Dr. Timothy Puri’s panel with LifeLoop's Rob Fisher and Watermark Retirement Communities' Lee Ann Collins MSN, RN on how to thoughtfully integrate social wellness into your organization. You’ll leave with actionable strategies on elevating the resident experience and positioning your community as a leader in holistic, person-centered care within a value-based healthcare environment.   Be sure to also stop by Booth #925 to connect with the Curana Health team and learn how we support communities with clinical performance, onsite primary care, behavioral health, and tailormade value-based care programs for senior housing.   See you next week!

There's immense value in engaging across the industry at every level. Conversations at LTC 100 offered a broader view into where the skilled nursing landscape is headed, bringing together operators, investors, and partners who are shaping long-term strategy. Those discussions continued in a more personal way during an intimate dinner we co-hosted with Clarest Health, allowing for deeper dialogue and shared perspective. At the regional level, our team’s recent presence at The South Carolina Health Care Association trade show reinforced how important it is to stay closely connected to the realities leaders are navigating in their local markets. And at the community level, a well-attended meet and greet at SearStone Retirement Community served as a powerful reminder that the most impactful insights often come from listening directly to residents and on-site teams. When insights from all three levels come together, they offer a more complete picture — one that ultimately supports smarter strategies and stronger support for the residents and communities at the center of this work.

On May 12, join us for a live webinar designed for senior living leaders navigating today's biggest operational and resident care challenges.   The first 30 days after move‑in represent the highest‑risk period for resident dissatisfaction, health decline, and move‑outs. In this session moderated by Argentum's + Emily O'Connor, our Senior Director of Partner Success + Kori LeCompte will be joined by Brookdale's Senior Director of Healthcare Strategy, Innovation, and Execution + Laura Rivers, MPH to share practical, actionable insights on building a wellness-driven resident journey — from admission assessments through 90-day stabilization.   Attendees will gain C-suite-level strategies to: - Strengthen resident engagement and early satisfaction - Improve length of stay and reduce avoidable escalations - Better align clinical and operational teams to ease staff burden   Link to register below! We look forward to seeing you there. https://lnkd.in/eACXJthB

At the LCS Clinical & Healthcare Operations Leadership Conference next week, leaders will come together to discuss the future of clinical care. At the event, Curana Health will participate in a discussion on value-based care, led by Jennifer Melnyk, and featuring VP of Operations Tasha Janssen, MSN, FNP-C, MBA and Associate Director of Partner Success Cole Rappaport. Together, they’ll explore how value-based models support clinical teams, strengthen operations, and improve outcomes across senior living communities. Looking forward to connecting with the LCS leadership community!

The past several weeks have offered meaningful reminders of what makes this industry special. A few highlights: Staying closely connected to the communities we serve, engaging residents and supporting experiences that reflect the core of what we do every day. Bringing clinical team members together at the Post-Acute and Long-Term Care Medical Association (PALTmed) conference for continued education and connection. And engaging in thoughtful, relationship-driven conversations with industry leaders at National Investment Center for Seniors Housing & Care (NIC), including an intimate dinner with LifeLoop at Husk. Each of these moments reinforces our approach to advancing collaboration, strengthening clinical alignment, and deepening engagement across the communities we serve.

We're honored to join LCS's 2026 Health & Wellness Navigator Community Leadership Conference next week, where Tasha Janssen, MSN, FNP-C, MBA, VP of Operations, will join leaders to discuss collaborative care and resident engagement. We look forward to meaningful conversations and continued momentum with the LCS community.
