If you haven’t explored podcasts yet, this is your opportunity to check out the medium and learn about the career journey and personal passions of Frasier’s very own CEO, Christie Hinrichs.
“Elevate Eldercare” was created by a team of industry and culture-change pioneers, including skilled nursing operators, care partners, researchers and nonprofit professionals. The goal of the work is to ensure that people are empowered with the necessary resources and education to be successful, while helping leaders in senior housing and care find supportive community cultures that bring out the best in care partners, team members and residents.
In this episode, host and nationally recognized leader for change in senior housing and care, Susan Ryan, speaks with Christie about what inspired her to dedicate her career to improving the lives of older adults. Christie discusses her role at Frasier Life Plan Community, what she’s learned from the residents who live there, and her recent transition to Board Chair of LeadingAge National, one of the premier associations that serves senior care and housing.
The podcast reveals a lot about Christie’s growth and understanding within the field of aging. It also touches on her commitment to “Servant Leadership,” a non-traditional leadership philosophy, embedded in a set of behaviors and practices that place the primary emphasis on the well-being of those being served. There’s a lot of good stuff in the conversation.
