August Health will help Koelsch digitally change with an easy-to-use platform that improves care workflows and gives caregivers and families essential insights. It offers a paperless move-in experience in an industry known for its paperwork. The platform guides users through best practices in clinical assessments, resident care, compliance, and analytics.
August Health Co-Founder and Co-CEO Dr. Justin Schram expressed, "We are thrilled to partner with Koelsch, a recognized national senior living leader, to further modernize their operations and support their exceptionally high standard of resident care."
He continued, "Operators like Koelsch face new challenges related to increased resident acuity, a tightening regulatory environment, and competitive labor markets. Our modern resident care platform enables them to excel in today's environment while positioning them for growth in the years ahead."
