OverviewThe essential guide to managing senior living communities—now updated! Senior Living Communities has long been considered the most comprehensive guide to revolutionizing the management practices of communities catering to seniors. Now in its third edition, Benjamin W. Pearce's updated book lays out the latest operational guidelines, assessment tools, and intervention options to transform how to provide care and enhance the quality of life for residents. With a focus on measuring and understanding health and lifestyle progression, this edition introduces how assessment tools can establish a baseline and enable tracking of changes in residents' health conditions. Equipped with this invaluable information, providers and primary care professionals can make informed decisions, tailor treatments, and improve the quality of life for their residents. Offering guidance on improving safety alongside advice on navigating increasingly complex lifestyle challenges, Pearce also provides actionable intervention options for staff implementation and strategies to respond proactively rather than reactively as residents' needs evolve. Informed by lessons learned during the pandemic, this edition features the latest advances in infection control strategies and outlines best practices in digital marketing, electronic record keeping, standards of care, and architectural design. It also contains revised appendixes, including a senior living metrics glossary, an operations audit, a sample SWOT analysis, and an executive director responsibilities checklist.
