What if aging services led the way in redesigning care—combining smart technology with deeper human connection?  That’s the challenge Katie Smith Sloan, President and CEO of LeadingAge, brings to the table as we unpack the data, the headwinds, and the promise across nonprofit senior living, home-based care, and Hospice.

 

Katie, also brings a powerful blend of policy insight, sector leadership, and human-centered vision to a wide-ranging conversation about the future of aging, workforce challenges, technology, dementia care, and the urgent need to break down silos across the continuum of care.

 

Together, Chris and Katie explore how collaboration, innovation, and values-driven leadership can reshape aging services to better serve older adults—and those who care for them. 

 

Join us, it is a great listen.
