  Join Arizona senior living and long-term care leaders for a high-impact day of insight, guidance, and real-world strategies—led by experts in the technology shaping our work and communities across the state.

  Why Attend? You’ll walk away with:

  • Actionable strategies you can use immediately
  • Clarity on expectations and operational risk areas
  • Practical insight into leveraging technology while maintaining compliance
  • Peer learning and connection with leaders across the continuum

  Program Schedule:

  Navigating AI in Senior Living: Practical Step for Today ~ Scott Walker - Meriplex

  Scott Walker, industry CIO, will lead a topic to explore the expanding role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Senior Living. As providers face tightening margins, persistent nursing shortages, and increasing operational headwinds, these technologies offer meaningful opportunities to elevate care quality while allowing clinical teams to focus on what they do best. The marketplace is rich with innovation—yet full of solutions that can be difficult to distinguish. At the same time, many organizations already have technology (such as Microsoft Copilot). Scott will share practical insights, industry observations, and actionable recommendations to help organizations navigate challenges and confidently plan for the road ahead.

  Beyond Infrastructure: Using Technology to Strengthen Connection, Wellness and Care ~ Lydia Nguyen - LifeLoop

  Senior living organizations are navigating a rapidly expanding technology landscape, with conversations often centering on operational risk, system selection, compliance, and return on investment. However, there is an equally important question leaders must keep at the center of these discussions: How can technology improve the daily lives of the people living and working in our communities?

  Lydia Nguyen will explore the broader trends shaping senior living technology and offer a practical framework for evaluating technology not only as infrastructure, but as a catalyst for wellness, connection, personalization, and workforce support. Participants will examine how thoughtful technology strategies can help reduce staff burden, streamline workflows, strengthen communication, and create opportunities for more personalized and meaningful resident engagement. The discussion will also consider how technology can help teams adopt a more whole-person approach to wellness by bringing together insights from across departments, identifying early signals of change, and supporting more proactive, personalized responses.

  Drawing on examples from senior living providers and research initiatives, this session will highlight how technology can support both operational goals and person-centered outcomes. Attendees will leave with actionable ideas for leveraging technology in ways that balance operational needs with the deeper goal of enhancing quality of life, supporting staff, and creating more connected communities.

  Building an AI-Ready Analytics Program: A Practical Roadmap for CCRCs ~ Aaron Williams - SeniorLytics

  Artificial intelligence is rapidly changing how senior living organizations access and use information, but successful AI initiatives require more than simply implementing new technology. This session will explore the foundational components of an enterprise analytics program, including how to organize, govern, and leverage both structured operational data and unstructured organizational knowledge. Attendees will learn practical approaches for building an analytics function internally, evaluating different organizational models, and creating a roadmap that prepares their organization for AI-driven decision support.

  Aaron Williams will provide a vendor-neutral framework for understanding enterprise analytics and AI readiness within senior living organizations. His emphasis is on organizational strategy, governance, and implementation approaches rather than specific software products or technologies.

  Preparing Your Organization for AI: Building the Data Foundation First ~ Michael Deenihan - Sun Health

  Hear about what your colleagues are doing to incorporate technology for better results. Michael Deenihan will share real-world experience about taking data in the data lake, using a CDP to correlate that data into golden records, and using AI to find patterns in the data so we understand the lifecycle of our constituents.

  If your community holds a license — Assisted Living, Behavioral Health, or Skilled Nursing, Hospice or Adult Day— this one's for you. We're bringing the regulators and the innovators into the same room for a full day built around what's actually changing in your world.

  The morning opens with the NCIA Board walking through new educational requirements and what they mean for your teams. From there, we're thrilled to welcome PainChek, a company doing extraordinary work helping caregivers recognize pain in people who can't tell you where it hurts. This matters everywhere — dementia care, adult day, hospitals, any setting where communication is a barrier to good care. If you've ever wondered whether someone is in pain and had no way to know for sure, this session is going to change how your team approaches that question.

  In the afternoon, Deputy Director Odette Colburn and her team from licensing will spend the full afternoon walking through licensing updates. Wherever you sit on the licensing spectrum, this is the room to be in.

  This one's for the people doing the human side of care every day. Hospice of the Valley kicks things off with dementia programming and training, followed by Oakwood Creative sharing how they infuse joy into every level of adult day programming — a lesson that translates to any setting, any level of care.

  We're also excited to welcome Geri Gadgets, whose founder will share an incredibly simple, inexpensive tool that's making a real difference for communities working with residents living with dementia.

  And because you can't talk about the future of this work without talking about HR1 — we've brought in our friends from AHCCCS the Rural Health Grant Transformation program, and the Governor's Office to break down what's actually coming. Even if you think HR1 doesn't touch your organization, it does. This session covers what to watch, how it's going to hit your operations, and what HR directors and anyone working with Medicaid-involved residents need to know now. This is the kind of session you plan around, not one you catch the recap of later.
