Senior Living & Precision Brain Health


Listen Later

This week on the Evolution of Medicine podcast, we're exploring what may be the most natural, and most underutilized, home for precision brain health: senior living. Earlier this year, I was introduced to Doug Motter, President of Homestead Village in Pennsylvania. For the past 27 years, Doug has been guiding a 600-resident senior living community with a clear north star: health, dignity, and longevity. He joins me on the podcast alongside Hal Cranmer, CEO of A Paradise for Parents, a five-location senior living organization in Arizona. While their communities are different, Doug and Hal share one powerful thing in common: They are innovating at the intersection of senior living and precision brain health. In this conversation, we explore how both leaders were influenced by the work of Dr. Dale Bredesen, and how they've each taken meaningful steps to bring proactive, root-cause brain health approaches into senior living environments—places traditionally designed for management of decline, not reversal. This topic is close to my heart. It's personal, not just as someone building in this space, but as someone thinking about where our parents, and eventually we ourselves, might want to live in our later years. What makes this conversation so exciting is that it clearly shows why senior living may be the ideal setting for precision brain health:

  • You have people who need this level of care

  • You have built-in community and connection

  • And you have the opportunity to deliver group-based, proactive brain health at scale

On the podcast, we also announce an exciting new partnership between Homestead Village and TruNeura, where we'll be deploying a group-focused precision brain health program, in collaboration with Turnpaugh Health & Wellness, a six-location, 20-provider functional medicine clinic serving Central Pennsylvania. This episode is a glimpse into what's possible when senior living shifts from custodial care to cognitive optimization, community, and purpose. Listen in if you're:

  • In senior living and curious about the future of brain health
  • A functional or integrative clinic interested in partnering with senior communities
  • Or simply thinking about what "aging well" could really look like

If you're interested in exploring a partnership with a senior living center or bringing precision brain health into this setting get in touch with us and book a concierge call to learn more. This is the future. And it's already beginning.
