A new LeadingAge study will try to answer that question by exploring how increased compensation for direct care workers could favorably impact the national economy, the field of long-term services and supports (LTSS), and individual direct care workers.
Here’s an overview of our work for you in November 2019.
In June 2019, member organizations will receive one survey for each of their settings. Each survey will arrive by email, and will take about 10-12 minutes to complete.
May 31 is the deadline to submit nominations for 3 LeadingAge Awards that will be presented during the 2019 LeadingAge Annual Meeting & EXPO.
June 14 is the deadline to nominate a nurse leader for the Joan Anne McHugh Award for Leadership in Long-Term Services and Supports (LTSS) Nursing. The winner receives $1,000 to be used for professional development, and a trip to the LeadingAge Annual Meeting & EXPO in San Diego.
Here’s an overview of our work for you in December 2018.
LeadingAge spent a lot of time getting “up close and personal” during August 2018, as our team members in Washington, DC, and our members around the country, held face-to-face meetings with policy makers. As Labor Day approached, we also stepped up our efforts to develop tools and resources to help members prepare for an array of political and regulatory milestones coming this fall.
It’s been hot and steamy in the nation’s capital this July. But our 90-degree temperatures and near-100% humidity haven’t put a damper on the energy and enthusiasm of LeadingAge team members. We’ve been busy launching new initiatives, disseminating exciting new research, speaking out on important issues, and preparing useful resources for LeadingAge members. Here’s a guided tour of our work for you in July 2018.
“Let’s talk about it” has been LeadingAge’s primary message to consumers, policy makers, and members during June 2018. We’ve asked millennials to “Carry the Conversation” by becoming the voice of long-term services and supports (LTSS). We’ve been talking with policy makers about a variety of issues that matter to older Americans. And we’ve provided resources that member organizations can use to frame their internal conversations about important decisions.
During April 2018, LeadingAge launched a new series of town hall conversations with members around the country, positioned members to become hometown advocates, asked hard questions about how to pay for services, raised concerns about federal funding proposals, and developed timely resources addressing weapons policies, fair housing, workforce, ageism, and technology.
