We had such a great conversation with Kim O’Brien and Amy McDonough of United Active Living in Calgary, Alberta, that we wanted to share this bonus clip with you about their successes and challenges in implementing an integrated living approach at their communities.
Kim serves as president and CEO at United Active Living. Their communities provide independent living, assisted living, and memory care in an innovative integrated community. Prior to joining United Active Living, Kim served as the CEO of Horizon Housing Society, a non-profit charitable organization specializing in the development and operations of affordable housing in Calgary. While in this role, she was a strong voice locally and nationally for the lasting positive impacts from people having access to a safe, quality home and the opportunity to be a part of the community.
Amy leads the United Minds program at United Active Living. In this role, Amy implements and leads the company’s integrated living and relationship-centered philosophy, educating and empowering front-line staff, managers, families, and residents to support those living with dementia. Before joining the team at United Active Living, Amy served as volunteer coordinator and memory care support at Convent Care Canada and as recreation therapist and co-lead of the Dementia Butterfly Model of Care Project at Intercare Southwood Care Center.
