Podcasts about senior care

Are humanoids ready to step onto the front lines of mental health, senior care, and emotional therapy? In another throwback episode of Edge of Show we are remembering our first-ever live podcast recorded in front of an audience with a humanoid robot, where host Josh Kriger sits down at Moss in Venice Beach with Ria, an emotionally intelligent humanoid developed by Machani Robotics.Josh frames the episode around groundbreaking clinical data: generative AI therapy chatbots driving a 51% reduction in depression symptoms and patients rating AI psychotherapy responses higher in contextual empathy than human therapists. Joining the stage is Niv Sundaram, Chief Strategy Officer at Machani Robotics, who discusses the company's technical roadmap, data privacy protocols, and mission to deploy empathy-focused humanoids across senior care, special needs education, and wellness lounges globally. The episode concludes with a live, unscripted Q&A session where audience members test Ria's perspectives on human loneliness, existential grief, and inter-agent ethics.Support us through our Sponsors! ☕ Want to make content like ours?

What does it really mean to be part of The Sandwich Generation? This is a really personal one for me and I'm honored to welcome back Jill McNamara, LICSW, Vice President of Senior Care at Care.com and a senior care and aging expert, to talk about the emotional realities of caring for aging parents while raising a family. Following the release of Care.com's first-ever Sandwich Generation Report, Jill shares insights from a survey of 1,000 caregivers, revealing just how common and often invisible this experience has become. Together, we get into why so many caregivers don't recognize themselves as caregivers until they're already overwhelmed, the emotional weight of decision fatigue and anticipatory grief, why asking for help can feel so difficult, and the surprising personal growth that can emerge through caregiving. I open up about what's currently going on as my siblings and I continue to navigate our mom's Alzheimer's diagnosis and all the difficult decisions that comes with it as we figure out the best way forward. Whether you're currently caring for aging parents or simply want to be better prepared for the future, this conversation offers practical guidance, reassurance, and a powerful reminder that you don't have to navigate caregiving alone. To learn more, explore Care.com's 2026 Sandwich Generation Report and caregiver resources at care.com/sandwich, and follow @WeAreTheSandwichGen for ongoing support and practical tips.

Most nursing home administrators don't realize they're sitting on one of the most underutilized revenue streams in all of Medicare — and until someone shows up and tells them what it's worth, they never will. In this episode, Scott Middleton — founder and Chief Disruption Officer of Your Health — calls in from the road as he travels across rural Georgia on a multi-day facility tour, fresh off completing a major merger with TCPA. What follows is an unfiltered, on-the-ground breakdown of two transformational opportunities Scott is actively building: chronic care management (CCM) reimbursement and ACO cost savings — and the very specific reasons most of the industry is getting both wrong. In this episode, you'll hear: Why Medicare already pays $65/hour for care management performed by nurses, community health workers, and social workers — and how Your Health is now contracting with nursing home facilities to perform it, paying them up to $100 per patient per month The "Fuse" platform — a communication and documentation tool that routes care management notes directly into billing-ready buckets, syncing with point-of-care software so the minutes get captured and billed automatically How ACO risk scores work, why Your Health's scores have grown 30% under their current plan, and what failing to see hospice patients could cost the organization — up to $22 million in a single year The $4,800 per patient per year problem: how one physician in their network was quietly rated one of the worst under the ACO model simply because his patients were going home without any follow-up Scott's announcement that SSAs and TCPs are being restructured to report directly to peer group administrators — and why the confusion about their roles has cost the company If you lead a nursing home, an assisted living facility, a physician group, or any organization inside the long-term care ecosystem, this episode will change how you look at what you're already doing — and what you're leaving behind. www.YourHealth.Org

What if the most powerful growth strategy in hospice and primary care had nothing to do with your clinical protocols, your technology stack, or your marketing budget — and everything to do with who shows up, and how often? In this episode of The Disrupted Podcast, Scott Middleton — founder and Chief Disruption Officer of Your Health — unpacks the real-world lessons shaping how your Health is staffing, growing, and rebuilding trust as it integrates the newly merged TCPA and Providence Care organizations. Scott spent the week in the field — Monroe, Georgia; Beaufort, South Carolina; Atlanta and beyond — sitting in care team meetings, talking to nurses, watching exercise classes, and rethinking everything from staffing ratios to personality matching. What he found is both a warning and a blueprint. In this episode: Why minor service failures — a nurse who didn't show up once — can cost you an entire facility relationship, and what it actually takes to earn it back The strategic case for pulling a nurse off a shared caseload and planting her full-time in a single building — even when the numbers don't fully justify it yet The story of a nurse so embedded in one facility that an administrator told Your Health: "I will cut you if you move her" How DISC personality profiles should determine which staff member walks into which building — and why getting it wrong creates friction that kills referrals Why the best talent you'll ever hire is already living in the community you serve — and why your recruiters will never find them on Indeed The centralize-then-decentralize model Your Health deploys every time it launches something new — and why it's the only way to scale without losing quality If you lead a care team, run a hospice program, manage a building, or are trying to grow in any direction in healthcare right now — this episode is your field guide. www.YourHealth.Org

In this episode of Talk Law Radio, host Todd Marquardt sits down with Jill Piazzi, Advanced Professional Aging Life Care Manager and owner of Gray Matters, to discuss the critical nuances of navigating senior care, caregiver support, and the societal fight against ageism. Drawing from over three decades of professional experience in gerontology and her own personal family journey, Jill shares essential insights into proactive care planning, family dynamics, and advocating for the dignity of older adults. Key Topics Covered The Role of an Aging Life Care Manager: What a certified care manager does, how they advocate for families, and why having a professional step in can help hold healthcare facilities and providers accountable. Proactive Planning vs. Crisis Response: Why families shouldn't wait for a medical emergency to establish care teams, evaluate finances, and understand benefit limitations (such as Medicare vs. out-of-pocket care). Navigating Complex Family Dynamics: How care managers act as neutral advocates during family meetings, mediate disagreements between adult children, and prioritize the actual wishes of the aging parent. Reframing Aging & Ending Ageism: Insights into the Reframing Aging initiative, how internalized ageism and everyday language (like "senior moment") impact perception, and why treating older adults as active, competent decision-makers matters in everyday life and healthcare settings. Staying Active & Purpose-Driven: The importance of lifelong learning, volunteering (such as through Oasis), and keeping older adults connected to their communities. Key Takeaways Build Your Care Team Early: Don't wait until a fall or crisis occurs to assign roles, review legal/financial plans, and discuss direct care responsibilities. Shift the Narrative on Language: Simple changes—such as using "older adult" rather than terms associated with declining competence—help dismantle systemic and internalized ageism. Advocate for Patient Autonomy: In medical and family settings, ensure the older adult remains the primary voice in decisions impacting their life as long as possible. Care Managers as Family Advocates: For long-distance families or overwhelmed caregivers, hiring an Aging Life Care Manager provides on-the-ground support, routine check-ins, and checks and balances for facility care.

Legacy, leadership, aging parents, and compassion. Dave explores how today's choices shape tomorrow's memories and the life people will remember.

Rick Kahler spotlights the overlooked impact of a daily money manager through Maggie Knowles' in-home work with seniors—where the real value isn't just paying bills, but serving as an emotionally attuned gatekeeper. Sitting at kitchen tables, she catches costly errors, notices subtle shifts, and brings awareness to decisions that others—planners, accountants, even family—rarely see. In that space, trust becomes everything. With no authority to decide, she instead guides, reflects, and raises flags when something feels off, blending practical oversight with emotional intelligence. The result is a unique layer of protection and clarity—helping seniors stay independent longer while ensuring their financial lives remain grounded, visible, and cared for in ways traditional roles simply don't provide. #RickKahler, #MaggieKnowles, #DailyMoneyManager, #SeniorCare, #AgingInPlace, #FinancialCaregiving, #FinancialWellness, #MoneyManagement, #SeniorFinancialCare, #FinancialProtection, #ElderCare, #FinancialPlanning, #CareCoordination, #FinancialOversight, #FraudPrevention, #FinancialSecurity, #MoneyAndAging, #IndependentLiving, #TrustedAdvisor, #BehavioralFinance, #EmotionalIntelligence, #ClientCare, #FinancialAdvocacy, #ElderFinancialSafety, #PersonalFinance, #CaregiverSupport, #FinancialProfessionals, #AgingAdults, #LoveAndMoneyPodcast, #FinancialTherapy, A podcast that blends the nuts and bolts of financial advice with the emotions that drive our money decisions.

The American healthcare system is built around a simple idea: get sick, get treated. But what if the problem isn't how we treat illness — it's that we've never seriously tried to prevent it? In this first installment of a two-part conversation, Jamie sits down with Brody Wall, Division President of Operations at Your Health, to trace the arc from a broken, reactive healthcare system to one where data tells you what's coming before the patient even knows something is wrong. Brody's path to healthcare wasn't through a textbook — it was through a father who was a Methodist minister and a mother who spent her career caring for underprivileged children. The mission was always there. The data just became the most honest way to fulfill it. In Part 1, Jamie and Brody cover: Why fee-for-service healthcare financially rewards volume of sick visits — not health — and how that one incentive structure explains why 17-20% of America's GDP goes to healthcare costs with outcomes that still lag behind other developed nations What Your Health was flying blind on before it committed to building a real data infrastructure — and what gut-feeling decisions look like when data finally proves them wrong How social determinants of health (Z codes) and behavioral health conditions (F codes) reveal which patients are actually at the highest risk of hospitalization The finding that changed everything: patients with four or more behavioral health conditions were ten times more likely to have multiple ER visits — and the clinical response that followed This isn't just a conversation about numbers. It's about what happens when an organization decides that preventing the crisis matters more than reacting to it. Part 2 drops next week. www.YourHealth.Org

Pismo Beach Today 07/12/2026 12p: David Adler of Amada Senior Care Talks about Veterans benefits. Produced by Jim Richards

A rushed discharge. A chart that does not match reality. A loved one with Alzheimer's or Parkinson's dementia who cannot explain what hurts. If you have ever felt bullied by a system that moves too fast, this conversation is for you.Susie and Don talk with Laura Finnelly, a registered nurse with 25+ years in healthcare, a certified senior care manager, an Air Force veteran, and the founder of Guided Care RN Advocates. Laura lays out what families need to know about patient advocacy, navigating hospital stays, preventing medical errors, and protecting dignity in dementia care. She also shares why she calls herself a “neighborhood healthcare cop” and why that mindset helps caregivers ask better questions, document the right details, and stop feeling “crazy” when something is off. All things that motivated her to write RN on Duty, a practical guide gives families the tools, structure, and confidence they need to navigate today's healthcare system more effectively.Rather than focusing on medical advice, RN on Duty teaches you how to navigate the system itself—from preparing for appointments and organizing medical information, to understanding hospital processes, discharge planning, and care transitions.Susie and Don connect those practical tools to the bigger fight for long-term care reform, including their first-ever synchronized National Walk for Long-Term Care Reform on September 27. They also get real about caregiver stress, nurse burnout, staffing shortages, and the harsh reality that people who cannot speak up are often the first to be overlooked unless someone is there to advocate.  Laura will be leading one of the walks in Illinois. So if you live in Illinois - you'll want to sign up to be a part of this historic event! One key takeaway you do not want to miss: how to challenge an unsafe discharge, including the Medicare Notice of Medicare Non-Coverage and how an appeal can pause the process long enough to get answers. We also cover Medicare-funded advocacy and navigation options and where to find qualified patient advocates,Connect with Laura: info@guidedcare1.comSubscribe, share this with a caregiver, and leave a review so more families can find these tools when they need them most.Send us Fan MailIf someone you love experienced neglect in a nursing home…Then you know how desperately the system needs to change.  History has shown us that It takes people power to change anything worthwhile.

What if the future of aging isn't just about safety, but about connection, and rethinking how technology supports both seniors and the people who care for them? In this episode, Tatyana Zlotsky discusses the evolving senior care landscape and how A Place for Mom connects families with over 15,000 senior care providers. She shares insights on leveraging technology and AI, supporting family caregivers, and creating a compassionate, values-driven organization that empowers seniors and their loved ones.

AI tools, collaboration platforms, and workflow automation improve experiences for seniors, caregivers, and providers alike. ● Caregivers are a “second patient.” Family caregivers face stress, anxiety, and personal health challenges, and A Place for Mom exists to support them throughout the senior care journey. ●     Values and employee engagement drive impact. Mission-driven culture, recognition programs, and active listening to both families and staff ensure the company's services remain high-quality and empathetic.   About the guest: As CEO of A Place for Mom (APFM), Tatyana Zlotsky leads the Company's strategic vision, operations, and management.

Pismo Beach Today 06/28/2026 12p: In a rerun of the May 10 show, we talk to David Adler of Amada Senior Car of Santa Maria. Produced by Jim Richards

Talk about Senior Care issues

What if the patient never noticed the merger at all? For Matt Staub, that's not a failure — it's the goal. In this episode, Your Health CEO Matt Staub sits down with Jamie to talk through the company's merger with TCPA and Providence Care — a move that brings together similar footprints in primary care, palliative, hospice, skilled nursing, and assisted living across South Carolina and Georgia. As a 23-year healthcare veteran going through his first merger, Matt is candid about the tedious due-diligence "earnest money" phase, the EMR transitions ahead, and why he refuses to let "what could go wrong" crowd out "what could go right." You'll hear: Why "mass moves mass" — and what scale actually buys patients in care management and data analytics How Your Health breaks 50,000 patients into groups, teams, and "hubs" so no one falls through the cracks The "change is hard" philosophy and the discipline of productive (not just effective) communication How the spirit of agape — godly love — still threads through a company that's evolved far past its original name What success looks like in six months: patient retention, mission and margin If you lead through change — or live through it — this one will reframe how you think about getting bigger without losing what made you matter.

Aparna Pujar, CEO and founder of Zemplee, joins host KJ to share how a personal experience as a remote caregiver for her aging parents in India sparked the creation of a passive, AI-powered senior care platform. She breaks down why the senior care industry is broken, why episodic care is no longer enough, and how continuous, lifestyle-integrated monitoring can reduce hospital days, prevent falls before they happen, and give older adults the dignity of staying home. Key Takeaways: 3:30 — Aparna founded Zemplee out of a deeply personal caregiving crisis, not a business opportunity, and her own parents were the first test cases. 7:58 — The senior care market is split: roughly 20% of seniors live in institutional settings while 80% live at home with little to no proactive monitoring until a crisis forces the issue. 25:27 — Zemplee's technology is fully passive and lifestyle-integrated, meaning sensors collect data in the background without adding any cognitive burden to the senior or caregiver. 26:17 — Women will spend a significant portion of their lives as caregivers and then eventually as care seekers, making the design of a better system a personal stake for nearly everyone.

Alzheimer's can take so much, so fast, and the hardest part is feeling like you have zero control. We're Susie Singer Carter and Don Priess, and we're joined by Mark Wilson, a former Fortune 500 leadership executive whose new book, Breakthrough Alzheimer's Care, offers a hopeful roadmap that leads to thriving, not just surviving through a dementia journey.After his mother was diagnosed with both Alzheimer's and vascular dementia, Mark made the life-changing decision to leave a successful corporate career and become her full-time caregiver. What followed was a remarkable journey that challenged expectations and transformed both their lives.Drawing on leadership principles, practical strategies, and deep personal experience, Mark shares how families can become Care Leaders, not just caregivers, by creating environments that prioritize safety, joy, connection, purpose, and well-being.We discuss:• The mindset shift from caregiver to care leader• The five breakthrough pillars of care• Building and leading an effective care team• Creating moments of joy even in the face of dementia• Supporting your loved one without losing yourself• Why hope still matters after an Alzheimer's diagnosis• Finding purpose and meaning throughout the caregiving journeyWhether you're caring for a parent, spouse, partner, or friend, this episode offers practical guidance, heartfelt wisdom, and a powerful reminder that love can still create extraordinary moments.Because even when there is no cure, there can still be connection, purpose, and joy.If this conversation helps, subscribe, share it with a friend who's caregiving, and leave a review so more families searching for Alzheimer's caregiving support and dementia care strategies can find it.#LoveConquersAlz, #Alzheimers, #Dementia, #Caregiving, #FamilyCaregiver, #CaregiverSupport, #DementiaCare, #SeniorCare, #CareLeader, #AgingParents, #CaregiverLife, #AlzheimersAwareness, #CaregivingJourney, #ElderCare, #CaregiverWellnesConnect with Mark:Website: Bold Care LeaderLinkedIn: LinkedIn ProfileInstagram: @boldcareleaderFacebook: Mark Wilson / Bold Care Leader on FacebookBook: Breakthrough Alzheimer's CareSend us Fan MailIf someone you love experienced neglect in a nursing home…Then you know how desperately the system needs to change.  History has shown us that It takes people power to change anything worthwhile.

Paying for Care

Heads up — this is Part 2 of Jamie's conversation with Jaclyn Taylor If you haven't heard Part 1 yet, go back and start there. It sets up everything we unpack today. Most healthcare teams are working hard. They're just not working together. And the patient is the one absorbing the cost. In this second half of the conversation, Jamie and Jaclyn move from the why into the how. What does it actually look like when a provider stops responding to today's schedule and starts managing an entire patient panel? How do you turn a community health worker, a pharmacist, a PT, and a social worker into one coordinated team instead of four parallel ones? And what's the difference between data that produces reports and data that produces decisions? You'll hear: Why "frequent touches" only work when they're connected — and how fragmented touches still land patients back in the hospital The quarterback model — what it actually means for a provider to own a patient's trajectory, not just their visit The shift from seeing patients to managing a population — and why most providers were never taught how Why we don't have a resource problem in healthcare — we have an orchestration opportunity How to use technology and data without drowning in either What "showing up" really means inside a system that isn't perfect yet This is the episode for anyone trying to lead change from inside a system that's still catching up.

Send us Fan MailFamilies don't always start with Google. A huge number start with a post to friends and neighbors: “Does anyone know a good home care agency for my mom?” That's why we're getting tactical about Facebook marketing for home care agencies and why a neglected business page can quietly cost you trust before you ever get a chance to earn the referral. We walk through how Facebook actually functions as a community outreach engine for senior care: where decision makers spend time, why local groups and neighborhood conversations matter, and how to participate without sounding salesy. We also unpack the most misunderstood metric on social media right now. Follower count is far less important than comments, shares, reactions, and real discussion. If you want referrals and leads, your goal is familiarity and credibility, not volume posting. You'll get a clear content framework you can reuse every week: community connection posts from events, educational caregiving tips that answer real questions, and human stories that spotlight caregivers and team culture. We also cover when paid Facebook ads make sense, including caregiver recruiting and simple lead magnet guides that build your email list over time. Plus, we touch the questions families ask most about home care cost and Medicare so your content matches what people actually want to know. If this helps, subscribe, share this with a home care owner or marketer, and leave a review so more senior care professionals can find practical, ethical marketing strategies.Continuum Mastery Circle IntroVisit our website at https://asnhomecaremarketing.comGet Your 11 Free Home Care Marketing Guides: https://bit.ly/homecarerev

Isabelle Guarino is the CEO of RAL Academy and a pioneering force in transforming the assisted living industry. Inspired by personal experience and her father's legacy, Isabelle empowers others to profit with purpose by turning residential assisted living into a vehicle for wealth, impact, and dignity. Through her educational programs, bestselling books, and heartfelt mentorship, she helps entrepreneurs create compassionate care homes that honor seniors while giving families peace of mind and financial freedom. Takeaways: Residential assisted living offers a homelike, dignified alternative to institutional care, allowing seniors to age with respect and families to remain connected in meaningful ways. Entrepreneurs can build impactful and profitable businesses in assisted living without being hands-on caregivers, by owning and operating residential homes and leveraging state licensing for both general and memory care. Achieving success in this space (and any entrepreneurial venture) requires taking action, commitment, and coachability—not just knowledge and intention. Sound Bytes: “There's something in the middle called residential assisted living, and it's just a much better option for everyone involved.” — Isabelle Guarino “In a traditional big box facility, you'll have 30 seniors to one caregiver. In an RAL, you might have four to one or five to one. That could be the difference between life and death.” —Isabelle Guarino “You are allowing the daughter or son to be a daughter or son once again... That is so beautiful to give back to families in this way.” — Isabelle Guarino Connect & Discover Isabelle: Instagram:@theisabelleguarino Podcast: The Young Boss LinkedIn:@isabelle-guarino Website: Residential Assisted Living Academy Book: Young Boss: Your Youth Is Your Power           Living Legacy: Invest In Your Community While Creating Significant Cash Flow
