@CaringKatie @dhutson @rlps_architects Thanks so much to our rock star #efacon panel - Katie Roper @CaringKatie, Dan Hutson @dhutson and Dustin Julius @rlps_architects. Really great insights on how to infuse technology into the built environment thoughtfully.

[Katie Roper @CaringKatie]

High praise at #efacon for @Wellzesta because control remains in the hands of residents. 79% use the app every day, avg age of user is 84, avg time 25 minutes. Who says elders don’t use tech??

[Katie Roper @CaringKatie]

Excited to be speaking on technology in #seniorhousing at #efacon with @dhutson and @rlps_architects - thanks @quantumagecoll for inviting me!

[Katie Roper @CaringKatie]

Name, decor, create a destination within a senior housing community. Great for those w limited mobility but make sure it is consistent w your brand! ⁦@rlps_architects⁩ #efacon

[Katie Roper @CaringKatie]

Design a servicescape-make sure built environment conveys the quality of your service. Lighting-temperature-employee behavior must all be consistent #efacon @rlps_architects

[Katie Roper @CaringKatie]

Brand usually is brought in too late to impact community design. Brand Needs to be part of initial vision for competitive differentiation. ⁦@rlps_architects⁩ ⁦@LoveandCompany⁩ #efacon

[Katie Roper @CaringKatie]

Brand impression made in 50 milliseconds-for senior housing, what does the view from your driveway say? Is it consistent w your website? @rlps_architects @LoveandCompany #efacon

[Katie Roper @CaringKatie]

High brand equity for Margaritaville #seniorhousing => changed zoning to allow 2X units vs original plan. Wow @rlps_architects #efacon

[Katie Roper @CaringKatie]

.@chadterhune your story in KHN re man charged $1,555 for bandaid + tetanus shot in ER - my daughter went to ER at @StanfordMed and was charged $2,700 for a bandaid, not even a shot. CRIMINAL

[Katie Roper @CaringKatie]

Rename "retirement community" to "empowerment community" to create attractive option for older ppl @hollwich @innovationat50 #Innovate50

[Katie Roper @CaringKatie]

Tech is important as we age but human interaction is more important @JoAnn_Jenkins @innovationat50. We agree @HCAssistance!

[Katie Roper @CaringKatie]

Women leaving work for caregiving =>impacts pension, SSI, financial future. Serious problem. @JoAnn_Jenkins @innovationat50 #Innovate50

[Katie Roper @CaringKatie]

You'll likely spend more time (and $$) caregiving for elderly (parents, spouse) than raising children. @JoAnn_Jenkins @innovationat50

[Katie Roper @CaringKatie]

At @innovationat50 @JoAnn_Jenkins asks Where to find high quality home care assistance? Answer: here! https://t.co/niFu6VjM2z @HCAssistance

[Katie Roper @CaringKatie]
