Drawing on his background in healthcare administration and ministry, Chris explains why senior living must focus on the whole person by addressing mental, emotional, spiritual, and social well-being, not just clinical needs.The conversation dives into the realities families face when deciding between aging at home versus senior living communities, the importance of socialization and purposeful living, and why waiting too long to make care decisions can limit options.
