Where MorningStar’s New President Sees Opportunities for Senior Living Innovation

With 11 development projects in the pipeline and more to be announced soon, MorningStar Senior Living is in growth mode. Its new president, Mark Andrzejewski, is helping the Denver-based provider scale up while bringing a fresh perspective to the industry.

In particular, he sees the potential to use real-time data more effectively, and he is drawing on his health care and finance background to enhance efficiency while supporting MorningStar’s culture, he said last week during an hour-long SHN+ TALKS appearance.

With regard to occupancy, top operational executives see two emerging trends that give them hope for the future: the growing rate of vaccinations in senior living, and upticks in new sales leads at the beginning of this year signaling pent-up demand.
