Life Plan Communities

Smoothing care transitions, building new friendships, promoting intergenerational visits

LifeBio captures the incredible life stories of residents and smooths transitions. LifeBio helps life plan communities or continuing care retirement communities (CCRC) strengthen connections by ensuring each resident’s detailed life history and background follows them across the care continuum. 

LifeBio is an evidence-informed approach that reduces depressive symptoms and increases life satisfaction. Personal histories, preferences, values, and meaningful life experiences are captured and made accessible to staff as transitions happen across campus. This shared understanding supports meaningful ideas for one-on-one interaction, more personalized care planning, and a strong sense of community.

LICENSING OPTIONS FOR ORGANIZATIONS

An organization-wide license for LifeBio, utilizing the LifeBio Memory reminiscence therapy app for voice recording on iOS and Android devices, guides structured questions and conversations that help residents share their life stories in a comfortable, respectful way. Insights are used for life enrichment programming, care planning, and memory support. Visual Snapshots and Action Plans make it quick and easy for new staff members to connect by knowing more about each resident who has a LifeBio completed. Digital versions are easily added to the electronic health record. 

CCRCs and Life Plan Communities use LifeBio to support:

  • Stronger relationships between residents, staff, and families from entry through higher levels of care
  • Smoother transitions and trust building when residents move 
  • More consistent engagement across departments, shifts, and care settings
  • Greater resident satisfaction and a stronger sense of belonging within the community

LifeBio also supports the business and reputational goals of life plan communities. Families considering a life plan community or CCRC are making long-term decisions based on trust, continuity, and culture. LifeBio demonstrates a deep commitment to knowing residents as individuals, easing onboarding, strengthening retention, and differentiating the community in a competitive market.

Intergenerational Relationships & Workforce Development: LifeBio Connect Included
As a LifeBio licensed organization, your community also benefits from LifeBio Connect, a program that empowers youth to engage older adults while learning about careers in senior living. Ideally, a life plan community will have one or two (or more) youth interns/volunteers throughout the year. This is life changing for both the older adults and the young people, especially helping youth determine their career paths. 

Group Wellness Option: LifeBio Memory Group Class 
In addition to individual story capture, LifeBio offers the option (a paid upgrade) for a structured group wellness program for up to 12 weeks that supports social connection and engagement. A highly engaging and enjoyable group experience, the LifeBio Memory Group Class encourages conversation, reduces loneliness, and builds new friendships. Participants often realize how much they have in common, strengthening peer relationships and community bonds. Learn more about the LifeBio Memory Group Class.
