New QuickCast Explores Professionalizing the Caregiving Workforce

As part of National Workforce Development Month, LeadingAge has released a new QuickCast for members focused on strengthening and professionalizing the caregiving workforce. The program highlights strategies such as expanding the pipeline of caregivers, improving training and education, creating clear career pathways, raising compensation, and addressing long-term care financing challenges.

In the session, Molly Carpenter, director of workforce strategy and development at LeadingAge and the LeadingAge LTSS Center at UMass Boston, examines these strategies with practical prompts and recommended steps that providers can consider. The QuickCast also features panel discussions, videos, and downloadable resources to help members explore workforce solutions from multiple angles.

This free resource is available exclusively to LeadingAge members and offers timely guidance for Ohio providers working to stabilize and grow their workforce.
