Sequoia Living, in Partnership with Tazergy Inc., Win a McKnight’s Excellence in Tech Award

Sequoia Living and Tazergy are honored to have won a McKnight’s Excellence in Technology Award. The awards program is a joint production of the industry-leading journals McKnight’s Long-Term Care News, McKnight’s Senior Living, and McKnight’s Home Care.

Sequoia Living’s management wanted to meet consumer demands today and well into the future when they developed Viamonte at Walnut Creek, a new life plan community campus in the East Bay area. The Sequoia Living leaders sought to future-proof the new community, so they tapped into Tazergy’s tech expertise. Working with the in-house IT team, Tazergy offered up-to-date insights, expertise, and experience in weaving together complex, interactive technology systems, which have become a hallmark at Viamonte. Tazergy helped translate the data into action, supporting the types of technology potential residents demanded.

Futureproofing a Tech-Forward Senior Living Community

“Tazergy’s expertise in senior living technology had a huge impact on our operational success,” said Sequoia Living’s Chief Business Development Officer, Dave Latina. “Their low voltage project management helped us come in on budget, and a tech-enabled model unit — complete with voice-controlled lighting and blinds — led to faster sales than anticipated, with 98% lease-up less than two years after the community opened.”

More than a dozen outstanding long-term care technology programs and innovative teams were honored at 14th Annual McKnight’s Tech Awards ceremony.
