BrightSpring Chief Medical Officer Dr. Arif Nazir was featured in McKnight’s Long Term Care News article Bake In Success With Advanced Clinicians in Place: BrightSpring Health’s Arif Nazir, MD.” In the article, Dr. Nazir discusses the adoption of smart technologies at long-term care facilities and coordinating with key clinicians to ensure quality.
