Show Notes

Navigating the golden years presents challenges not just for the individual, but for their entire family. From soaring nursing home costs, to the struggle for autonomy, and those heart-wrenching conversations with loved ones—how can we evolve and find better solutions? Are there alternatives we haven't considered?

We continue our conversation with Susan Ryan, CEO of the Center of Innovation and the driving force behind The Green House Project. In the second installment of our two-part series we take a deep dive into the history of nursing homes and what we can do on an individual level to incite change in stagnant business practices that have lasted for over 50 yeares.
