12;Dining;Out
If the fit is right, outsourcing
dining services is a time and
money saver. See why some
providers outsource and
others don’t.
16;Grassroots;Advocacy
The future of resident-focused
assisted living depends on what’s
going on at state capitols and on
Capitol Hill right now. Here are
strategies for getting legislators on
your side.
20;Razing;the;Hierarchy
True team culture means knocking
down a company’s operational walls,
eliminating rank and titles, and
creating a “synergistic whole.”
24;REIT;Moves
Senior living continues to weather
the slowing economy, with many
companies turning to growth-focused
lease financing options.
26;Green;Easy
Even if a community wasn’t built
with sustainable strategies in mind,
retrofits and other solutions make
buildings more eco-friendly places for
residents and staff.
29;Open-Access;Game;Plan
Disclosing company plans to
employees requires a careful balance
between appropriately open and
telling them more than they need—or
care—to know.
