Addressing a Growing Need in Senior Living

With approximately 10,000 people in the U.S. turning 65 every day and an anticipated "silver tsunami" on the horizon, the need for senior living solutions is surging. By 2035, Americans over 65 are expected to outnumber those under 18, driving a sharp increase in the number of senior living communities across the country.
One key issue highlighted in the CBS segment was the difficulty of finding senior living communities with vacancies that align with unique personal needs. Christina Bremner created Purple Door Finders after witnessing firsthand the struggles that seniors and their families face in this process.
"I saw that when residents had a crisis, it was incredibly difficult for them to find a community with vacancies that met their needs," Bremner explained during the segment. Purple Door Finders now bridges that gap by offering easy access to real-time availability and personalized options nationwide.

Simplifying the Search for Seniors

The CBS feature spotlighted Glenda Takhar, a senior whose current living community is closing, leaving her without family and stuck on multiple waiting lists. "I don't know where I'm going yet. I'd like to stay in this area, but there are only so many beds," Takhar shared.
This scenario is precisely why Purple Door Finders was created.
Through Purple Door, families and seniors can search, compare, and find communities that match their specific needs, from cultural preferences to specialized care. Jen Lee, Chief Strategy Officer of Purple Door Finders, emphasized, "Our goal is to bring accessibility—not just offering a database but empowering people by showing that there are options tailored to a senior's individual needs."

A Game-Changer for Families

Families interviewed by CBS shared stories of how Purple Door Finders transformed their search experience. Chuck and Conni Thompson, for example, needed a senior living community that aligned with Chuck's Japanese mother's cultural requirements. Using Purple Door Finders, they were able to identify and secure a place within days.
"Before Purple Door, it was weeks of driving around and requesting tours. It was frustrating," the Thompsons said. "But now, with just a few clicks, we can quickly find what we're looking for."

Empowering Seniors to Live Their Best Lives

Purple Door Finders is not just simplifying logistics; it’s making meaningful differences in seniors’ lives. "Our mission is to empower seniors," Lee added. "After decades of raising families and hard work, seniors deserve to enjoy their lives in communities that feel like home."
The CBS Sacramento feature underscored the significant impact Purple Door Finders is making—providing clarity, reducing stress, and fostering accessibility during what is often a stressful transition. Bremner and her team are even personally assisting seniors like Glenda Takhar to ensure they find the best fit.
