Jason Shott, Regional Vice President at Atria Senior Living, shares the different paths his parents took as they aged – and the profound impact it had on their health and happiness. 

"When my dad moved into my senior living community, he came alive," Jason says. "The things he'd done when he was younger, he was doing again." 
 
Jason's mom, on the other hand, had refused care and mismanaged her medications, resulting in a stroke. Jason explains, "She went into a nursing home, where she contracted an infection and passed away. Senior living was a game changer for my dad; I wish it had been for my mom." 

Watch for answers to these critical questions about long-term care planning: 

1. Why is long-term care planning important? 

2. When should you start the conversation about long-term care? 

3. What would Jason do differently with the knowledge he has now? 

4. What should you look for in a senior living community? 

Jason emphasizes the importance of choosing a senior living community that offers not just quality care, but also an environment that enhances residents' quality of life with its culinary program, events and staff.
