Long Term Care/Skilled Nursing

Knowing a person's story helps staff learn who a person is and enhances person-centered care.

We empower family members, volunteers, or staff members to quickly and easily record a resident's life story. LifeBio highlights a person’s life patterns and preferences, helping direct care staff learn the best, individualized approach to care each day. LifeBio shows your commitment to deliver the best in person-centered care and memory care.  

See our new LifeBio Memory app in action. It works on both iOS/Android tablets or smartphones. Staff, family, or volunteers can easily engage residents to learn their amazing stories. Having a resident's VOICE captured is priceless.
