LeadingAge Wisconsin is a statewide membership association of nonprofit corporations dedicated to serving the needs of aging adults and people with disabilities. We provide our membership, which includes religious, fraternal, private, and government organizations, with programs and services to promote the highest quality of life and greatest independence for each individual served.

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?

In preparing for the new Patient Driven Payment Model (PDPM) it is time to review skilled nursing and documentation requirements. LeadingAge Wisconsin encourages skilled nursing facilities to participate in the upcoming three-part webinar series. Recorded webinar links will be available and each webinar will run for 90-minutes. 

Coming to Comfort Inn & Suites in DeForest on May 29, 2019.

The goal of this new seminar offering is to introduce the core elements of Trauma Informed Care and the transformative processes to change the organizational culture to support implementation of phase 3 regulations.

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 

I-LEAD is an engaging growth and development experience resulting in self-awareness, peer networking, and a discovery of new practices designed to inspire and motivate. Applications for the 2019-2020 training are due July 12, 2019.

Last year, 70 LeadingAge Wisconsin member organizations catapulted their recruitment and retention efforts with the tips shared by Denise Boudreau-Scott through our E Series. Those who registered to participate in the series already have access to the recorded webinars. Now, at the overwhelming request of our members, we are making available (to those who did not participate in the live series) the recordings of the five E Series webinars.
