The program, overseen by independent trade publications McKnight’s Long-Term Care News and McKnight’s Senior Living, recognizes executive-level women who have made significant contributions to the senior living or skilled nursing professions or who have demonstrated exceptional commitment to the fields. This is the program’s second year.

Nominations were judged by an external panel of industry experts who chose just 22 winners from the hundreds of nominations submitted. “The dedication and commitment shown by our Hall of Honor recipients truly sets them apart,” says McKnight’s editorial director, John O’Connor.

Potter was appointed president and CEO of Five Star Senior Living in January 2019 after serving as executive vice president and general counsel. She joined the company in 2012. In her first year as CEO, Five Star moved up five spots to third place in the 2019 edition of the J.D. Power U.S. Senior Living Satisfaction Study, which measures resident and family satisfaction among the nation’s largest providers of residential communities for seniors. By year-end 2019, a total of 32 Five Star communities in seven states had earned the coveted J.D. Power Senior Living Community Certification.

Potter’s commitment to advancing health and wellness and enhancing the experience of Five Star residents has led to strategic partnerships with Aging2.0, the National Senior Games and the MIT AgeLab Home Logistics Consortium. She also has championed the AgeLab’s OMEGA initiative through which Five Star is co-piloting intergenerational programming and fostering multigenerational connections between high school students and older adults.

Along with the other Hall of Honor winners, Potter will be honored at the May 7 awards dinner in Chicago.
