Webinar Replay: How Resident Acuity Is Reshaping Assisted Living Staffing
As resident acuity continues to rise, many senior living operators are finding that traditional staffing models no longer reflect the realities of care delivery.
In a recent webinar hosted by McKnight's Senior Living, Sage's Danae Mierau joined Sonida Senior Living President and CEO Brandon Ribar to discuss how leading operators are adapting their staffing strategies to better align caregiver resources with resident needs.
Rather than relying on fixed staffing ratios or historical assumptions, communities are increasingly using real-time care data to understand when residents need support, where caregivers are spending their time, and how staffing can be adjusted proactively.
During the conversation, you'll learn:
- Why rising resident acuity requires a more dynamic approach to staffing
- How real-time visibility into care delivery helps operators make better labor decisions
- The connection between caregiver recognition, retention, and resident outcomes
- Real-world examples of how Sonida used data-driven staffing strategies to improve response times while managing labor costs
- Why investing in technology alone isn't enough, and what it takes to drive meaningful operational change
Throughout the discussion, one theme remains clear: better staffing decisions come from data that lead to actionable insights. With those insights, community leaders can better support caregivers, improve resident care, and operate more effectively.
