The energy is building! Registration is open for MIMDA's premier event. This year's meeting, On the 45th Parallel: Taking Care to a Higher Latitude will be held in beautiful Gaylord, Michigan at the peak of the fall color season. 

Don’t miss this opportunity to learn and connect with your PALTC colleagues! Our keynote presentation will cover the work that addresses inequities in elder health care, including an innovative program to educate underserved communities on the benefits of hospice. The President and CEO of The Eden Alternative will present on their patient-centered care model and the financial rewards to a community that embraces it. Our ambassador from AMDA, Alex Bardakh, will be back to speak on changes that for-profit ventures are bringing to our environment. LARA Directors will present on survey trends and updates.

As in years past, we’re offering our Provider Bootcamp: Essentials of Post-Acute and Long-term Care. This comprehensive half-day session provides a framework for care delivery in the PALTC environment, including regulations, processes and best practices. Ideal for providers that are new to long-term care, it's also a great refresher for those who have worked here already, with clinical pearls to improve workflows.
