The inspiration for this approach stems from Jay L. Mann’s personal connection to quality senior care through his aunt Ethel, a remarkable woman who was shaped by her experiences as a child of the Great Depression. Ethel became a pioneering female professional in the 1950s and 60s, running the patent department of a major corporation and breaking barriers in her field. Her strength, compassion, and trailblazing spirit profoundly influenced Jay’s vision for senior care.
