How Sage and EmpowerMe Wellness Are Creating a More Connected Approach to Resident Care
Senior living communities are caring for residents with increasingly complex needs while navigating growing workforce pressures and rising clinical demands.
At the same time, clinical partners are being asked to identify changes in resident condition earlier, intervene more proactively, and help residents maintain independence for longer.
Meeting those expectations requires more than great caregivers. It requires better collaboration across the entire resident care team.
That's why Sage and EmpowerMe Wellness partnered to create a more connected approach to resident care. Read the full case study.
By giving EmpowerMe access to resident insights through Sage Insight, communities can now connect care delivery data, clinical services, and wellness programs in ways that were previously difficult or impossible. The result is earlier visibility into resident needs, stronger collaboration between community teams and clinical partners, and more opportunities for proactive intervention.
For EmpowerMe clinicians, access to Sage data provides a more complete picture of residents' day-to-day experiences, including activities of daily living, caregiver interactions, and other indicators that may signal a need for additional support.
That visibility is already helping create meaningful results.
During the pilot, communities utilizing the Sage integration saw proactive resident screens increase by nearly 47% in the first month of full implementation. EmpowerMe teams were also able to identify residents who may benefit from therapy services sooner, creating new opportunities to address concerns before they become larger clinical challenges.
As Amanda Nuesse, Clinical Consultant at EmpowerMe Wellness, explains:
"Instead of just relying on a patient to tell us how they're doing, we're able to see a much more complete picture and tailor therapy accordingly."
The partnership also creates value for operators by helping clinical partners access information more efficiently, reducing reliance on manual communication and creating a more integrated care experience for residents.
For Sage, the collaboration demonstrates the power of turning existing care data into actionable insights for every member of the care team.
For EmpowerMe, it enables a more proactive care model.
And for residents, it helps ensure changing needs are identified and addressed sooner.
The full case study explores how Sage and EmpowerMe are working together to close the gap between resident need and clinical action—and what that collaboration could mean for the future of senior living.
