The Corporate Leadership Council (CLC) acknowledges the immense leadership skills that are demonstrated every day in NADONA members. Without these skills and traits our post-acute care arena would suffer. Leadership extends beyond the bricks and mortar of buildings and into other areas, as well, that have an impact on our residents and the elderly. The areas include but are not all-inclusive: post-acute personnel, consultants, members within organizations with an emphasis on post-acute care, authors, government officials, activists, clinicians, entrepreneurs, and experts.

The CLC wants to recognize these outstanding leaders for their work and influence in post-acute care.

Each year the CLC shall solicit applications for this prestigious award. The applications will be available and processed through NADONA. This will be an annual award, and the winners will be identified in a special section of “The Director.” Potential candidates demonstrate the NADONA values within their work and everyday life.

Candidate must be nominated by a LTC health care professional colleague(s).

Candidates are selected by an awards committee comprised of NADONA/LTC/CLC members. The CLC will determine the winner and be involved in the presentation of the award during the NADONA annual conference.
