Why Senior Living Leaders Can't Afford to Ignore Technology
Wed Feb 04 2026
What if better care actually costs less? And what if technology is the bridge to get us there? In this episode, AgingIN CEO Susan Ryan is joined in this week's episodeby Kim Brawley, regional vice president of AgeWell Solvere Living, and Stu Hamilton,CEO and founder of Amba Health and Care, for a timely conversation about how technology—when implemented thoughtfully—can transform senior living.
Against the backdrop of demographic shifts, aging infrastructure, workforce challenges, and rising healthcare costs, the discussion explores how passive sensor technology, remote patient monitoring, and value-based care models can improve resident outcomes, empower caregivers, and strengthen organizational performance.
Hamilton and Brawley emphasize that successful technology adoption in aging servicesmust be intuitive, integrated, and designed to support—not replace—caregivers. In addition, they explore the growing opportunity for senior living providers to participate in value-based care, including Medicare-funded remote patient monitoring (RPM) and emerging federal programs.
This conversation makes a compelling case that technology—when aligned with strong values and a clear wellness philosophy—can be a powerful catalyst for cultural change in senior living.
