The challenges facing our industry are bigger than any individual or group. Nothing’s going to change unless we work together. That’s why we say that we aren’t hoping for a better future for seniors or how they’re cared for – we’re trying to create it.
The Innovation & Technology Center (ITC) is the dedicated arm of Direct Supply where we seek to improve existing technologies and develop forward-thinking innovations related to senior health. It’s like a unique blend of mission, passion and your favorite grandparent.

Mathletes, technoholics, purveyors of code, generally fans of big data and algorithms – whatever you want to call us, just don’t call us traditional. But at the core of what we do, we are explorers.

No one’s an expert at everything, so we’ve fostered some amazing partnerships to help us drive change, such as with the Milwaukee School of Engineering. For years, we’ve worked together to develop technologies that assist seniors. With the addition of their Computational Science Hall focused on applied AI (eh-hem: the first program of its kind; eh-hem: right next door) and NVIDIA’s supercomputing capabilities inside, the force grows stronger.

The ITC was purposefully built and intentionally designed to foster new applied tech solutions in the Senior Living space. It’s chaotic, but hey, it’s home. Fun fact – it’s also the largest tech building of its kind in the United States.

Establishing a cloud based Infection Prevention monitoring program in long-term care facilities Infection Preventionists spend at least 10 hours per week on reporting requirements1; between 1.6 and 3.8 million infections occur each year2, and the cost of infections...
Ventilation systems (also known as hoods) are required in a commercial kitchen setting. They provide fire protection for the kitchen and create a comfortable working atmosphere for your staff and a pleasant experience for your residents by removing odors, heat, steam, grease and smoke. Know the difference between hood types so you can identify and select the right products to go under them as well as innovative solutions that can stand alone.
In this session, we will examine the events of the 2020 pandemic and the gaps in care delivery that it exposed; exploring the lessons we learned from the past three years and identifying efficiencies that can allow your staff to become more proactive in the planning process and help you prevent, contain and manage infection outbreaks. Participants will learn how new technology can address the latest changes in regulatory language while also making their infection prevention tactics more efficient.
