EDUCATIONAL SESSION

How baby boomers will disrupt
senior living
To find out just what baby
boomers desire, SFCS Architects conducted a survey of
40,000 seniors to gauge their
expectations on senior living,
including community location,
size, wellness services, and
dining options.
Tim Mueller, president of
SFCS, and Melissa Pritchard,
senior vice president of SFCS,
shared those results and the
implications to the design
community during the session,
"The Next Generation of Senior
Living: What the Boomer Consumers Really Want." Here are
three of the findings shared:
1. Size matters. Survey
respondents were asked
about their preference
on community size, with
choices including small
(50-100 residents), midsize
(101-500), and large (greater
than 500 residents). The
majority chose small, which
presents a challenge to
operators and developers

tasked to find a model that's
financially viable.
2. Out with the old pricing
models. Given the options
of rental, real estate equity,
or a traditional entrance fee,
48 percent chose rental as
their preferred payment option. The speakers noted that
some communities are also
beginning to offer residents
the option to live in different
communities for extended
periods of time to appeal to
their desire for travel.
3. Don't underestimate
wellness. When asked to
pick their top three wants
in a retirement experience,
respondents ranked wellness
first, followed by opportunities for social interactions and
technology.
Overall, the speakers said
boomers are looking for a more
engaged experience, whether it's
dining choices, multigenerational
housing options, or enhanced
wellness services.-Anne DiNardo
