Long term and post acute care are continuously changing. New regulations and guidelines are being implemented in facilities across the country. Keeping educated on top of these are a constant challenge for Nurse Leaders, CNO’s, Vice Presidents of Nursing, Directors of Nursing, Assistant Directors of Nursing, Infection Preventionists, Directors of Assisted Living units and Staff Development Director. Communicating with staff and families remains a challenge, and in light of recent changes, even more important than ever! The National Conference will provide you with updates on these and other important trends that are, or will be, affecting you, your facilities and your residents. We will provide ideas on how to relax, take time for yourself and refill your cup. After all, if your cup runs dry, how will you be able to assist anyone?
