David Finkelstein , CIO at RiverSpring Living , outlines how the post-acute and long-term care provider is embracing game-changing new technologies
Every single day , RiverSpring Living – a post-acute and long-term care provider – ensures around 18,000 New Yorkers have access to the highest-quality services that the healthcare sector can offer .
This includes a 600-bed skilled nursing complex , numerous assisted and independent living facilities , and home care agencies – where visiting nurses , therapists and aides are sent to patients ’ homes to provide therapy , housekeeping and more .
Founded more than 100 years ago in Harlem , New York , RiverSpring is still looking after some of the most vulnerable members of society .
Look no further than the Weinberg Center , a shelter that brings in elders who have been abused either physically , emotionally , sexually or financially , and gives them access to legal and emotional support .
Another recent project has involved working alongside a real estate developer to build subsidised apartment buildings , where people previously living on the streets or in shelters can be provided housing , support services and essential skills like meal planning , money management and taking care of their own health .
What ’ s more , RiverSpring ’ s managed care programme services about 17,000 people , who give up their traditional insurance to join the organisation ’ s own insurance plan .
