  • Real-World AI in Senior Living: Insights from Dr. Carol McKinley
    Jul 9 2025

    In this episode, Melissa Brown sits down with Dr. Carol McKinley, President and CEO of Simpson Senior Services, for a powerful conversation about how senior living providers can use AI to revolutionize care delivery.

    Dr. McKinley shares her deeply personal journey into senior care, the inspiration behind her passion for innovation, and how Simpson is using AMBA’s passive AI monitoring to spot critical health changes before they become emergencies.

    You’ll hear how this technology is:

    • Reducing falls and hospital visits
    • Supporting frontline staff through real-time alerts
    • Improving family communication and resident confidence
    • Making data meaningful—even for non-clinical leaders

    Plus, learn how Simpson’s unique Tech Bar is empowering residents to take ownership of their health and wellbeing through hands-on access to smart health tools.

    If you’ve been burned by AI that promised everything and delivered little, this episode will restore your faith in what’s possible when technology is built for senior care instead of added onto it.
