The third-annual Best Senior Living Awards (formerly SeniorHomes.com Best of the Web) is a program designed to identify the top resources, people, providers and organizations in a variety of senior living categories. Last year's awards resulted in more than 450 nominations and more than 6,500 votes overall.

'Education through Social Media' campaign."

Twitter account named one of the industry's Top 10 most influential, and a unique
LTC Quiz on the company's Facebook page which has been particularly well-received.
During the finals of the Best Senior Living Awards,
18 judges hailing from all corners of the industry evaluated nominees using a set of standardized rating criteria. Although varying by category, research was conducted to determine features of most value to the consumer or audience, including:
