Can transforming senior living be the key to healthier, happier golden years? Meet Laurie Schultz, the visionary co-founder of Avenue, who is reshaping senior living through the innovative Viva Bene brand. With a fascinating transition from a career in statistics and marketing research to trailblazing in healthcare real estate, Laurie brings a unique perspective to addressing the needs of the aging population. As we celebrate the 10th anniversary of Avenue, discover how Laurie's team has evolved from their initial focus on value-based care with Oak Street Health to leading the charge in affordable, age-restricted housing paired with on-site healthcare and wellness services. Their mission is clear: engage a younger senior demographic, focusing on preventative care before chronic conditions set in.

In this episode, find out how Viva Bene ensures affordability without compromising on the quality of services offered to its residents. By collaborating with partners like Seve Health, they maintain a payer-agnostic model that accommodates various insurance plans, making healthcare accessible to all. Explore the cutting-edge technology, such as remote patient monitoring, that enriches resident experiences and enhances health outcomes, all while keeping environments warm and inviting rather than clinical. As Viva Bene expands nationally by acquiring multifamily buildings and launching new developments, their approach promises an active, social, and health-oriented lifestyle for those aged 55 and above. Laurie's passion and dedication shine through, offering a glimpse into the future of senior living.
