ATLANTA, Aug. 17, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Optima Healthcare Solutions, a leading provider of cloud-based software for post-acute care providers, today announced its partnership with Second Wind Dreams, an international nonprofit that helps aging seniors realize lifelong dreams. Through this partnership, Optima will provide funding and volunteers to help Second Wind Dreams positively impact residents in long-term care facilities.

"Optima and Second Wind Dreams have a common mission to improve the experience of aging, which makes our partnership a natural fit," said Josh Pickus, CEO of Optima.
