When will Wisconsin run out of available nursing facility services? This video answers that question, and it is sooner than most realize. Where will our frail elder loved ones receive critical care, and what can we do now to ensure their right to receive care where they live and love?

Value First is a group purchasing organization that leverages the buying power of long term care communities to provide significant savings on food, medical, janitorial, office supplies, capital equipment, and new construction materials. Providers who participate in the Value First purchasing program pay no annual fee, select only the suppliers that best fit their needs, and support LeadingAge Wisconsin with their purchases. Contact Denise May (DMay@LeadingAgeWI.org) for more information.

Providing quality care and services is skilled nursing’s reason to exist. Having sufficient and competent staff to deliver that care is imperative. This seminar will help attendees develop a deep understanding of staff competency while learning ways to assess and further develop staff. Attendees also will discover ways to link staff competency assurance to other activities, such as the facility assessment and QAPI. When: Thursday, June 27, 2019. Where: Comfort Inn & Suites, 5025 Co Hwy V, DeForest WI
