Meet the Company Founder and Silver Living Strategist • Ellen Belk, CDP
“I’m not satisfied with the status quo. If you tell me, “This is the way it’s always been done” I’ll be the first voice to share an alternative solution.” – Ellen Belk, CDP
From the sidelines to the frontlines. After ten successful years in Sports Broadcasting, Ellen transitioned into the Senior Living space. She traded in her courtside seats on press row in New York City to take an entry-level job at a nursing home in Wisconsin. Certainly a unique transition.
Ellen brought a fresh set of eyes and a new perspective to an industry that doesn’t crave change. Early on, she stood out as a fearless advocate for both residents in her care and the staff she supervised.
She’s held leadership roles within several prominent organizations like The Alexian Brothers Healthcare System (now Ascension Health), Brookdale, Atria Senior Living and Milestone Retirement Communities.
Ellen has remarkable success creating companywide Signatures Initiatives that garner media attention and compliment the Sales efforts for each employer she’s served. A natural-born leader, she moves seamlessly from the C-Suite to the front line staff, offering high impact strategic solutions with a side of humor.
Once an industry outsider now a dynamic speaker, Dementia Expert and celebrated innovative thought leader in the aging space.

A serial creator and recognized influencer, in 2017 while a National Director with Milestone Retirement Communities, Ellen guided the entire company to transition their language from Memory Care to Memory Support. She recognized the ‘pulse’ of the consumer trends at the time, which sought to move from clinical language to more holistic terms.
Ellen Belk, CDP and Founder of Keep In Mind, Inc. is the author and creator of The 360 System™.
The 360 System suite of services has been developed to benefit and assist the operators, developers, and product innovators within the – Assisted Living and Dementia Care sectors of long-term living.
The philosophy of The 360 System is based on Ellen’s TEAM approach, where TEAM stands for Together Executing A Mission.
The cornerstone of The 360 System suite of services are the Premier Level consulting packages for Assisted Living/Memory Care and Memory Care stand-alone communities.
Premier Level clients receive access to The 360 System’s dynamic playbook, a comprehensive, one-of-a-kind industry manual that features instructional chapters for every functional department within an assisted living and/or memory care long term living environment. When implemented properly, this TEAM approach positively impacts resident and family satisfaction as well as staff retention and job enjoyment. Additionally, it’s a tangible sales differential for today’s savvy consumers who expect a coordinated game plan that delivers championship level services to their loved ones.
Additional à la carte-style resources and consulting services are also available within The 360 System suite of services. A sample of these options includes:
Developing individualized manuals and playbooks to assist front line caregivers in the field of long-term care, aging, and dementia12 months of Dementia trainings designed for front line caregiversThe ‘Resident Experience Playbook for Success’ written for activity professionalsPre-construction or renovation consulting services for those contractors/developers building or refurbishing memory care spacesGuest expert BLOG postingIn 2012, when her father’s journey with Dementia began, Ellen was a long-distance care support person. She’d just completed the initial launch of Keep In Mind and actually negotiated her first client contract from the hospital parking lot, where her Dad had been admitted after a trip to the ER.
Balancing care career duties became real and personal for her in those days. Even though she was a Dementia expert already; as her Dad’s journey intensified through the broken healthcare system, she marveled at the lack of understanding or resources for those navigating and advocating for their loved ones. That’s when she launched the Caregiving 411 Initiative.
Caregiving 411 is intended for any company or organization who seeks to offer Caregiving Support as part of their benefit plan or wellness package. 80% of all Dementia care is delivered by family members. Most of those folks maintain either full or part-time employment above and beyond their care duties. Therefore, stress levels increase and time management is a challenge. All of these stressors can negatively impact both their caregiving and their employment status.
Listen Up Employers! Their care distractions often make them less productive and can lead to increased absenteeism. This negatively impacts your bottom line. Not to mention, caregiving stress affects overall mind body wellness which leads to increased healthcare costs.
Adding customized Care Support to your benefits plan will have a high impact on employee retention, satisfaction, and work performance.

Committed to the CarolinasWith deep ties to the region, company Co-Founder Dan Belk’s ancestors in the Carolinas can be traced back to the early 1700s. The name Belk is a recognizable family name in the Central Piedmont region.
Dan’s great great Grandparents had sixteen children. And the funny family quote at the time came from his great great Grandmother when she proclaimed to a news reporter that their family “had no Preachers, Teachers Doctors or Lawyers, they are all sticking to the soil for a livelihood.”
The vintage images below are from the Belk farm built by Dan’s great Grandfather. At the time, the farm was home to the second-largest Jersey cow herd in the state of North Carolina.
Although farming isn’t the modern-day family profession anymore, Dan Ellen remain citizens of the region and small business owners. They are actively engaged in a variety of ways through their faith community, volunteerism, and support of local causes and businesses.
Our PromiseAny North or South Carolina client we work with will automatically receive a 30% discount off the regular price of consulting services or products.
We look forward to serving our fellow Carolinians.
