Building an LTC Workforce That Actually Works

No long-standing issue in long-term care seems more persistent – and unsolvable – than workforce shortages at nursing homes, assisted living communities, and home- and community-based service providers.

“Mission Possible” assembled a team of experts to tackle some practical solutions to the workforce crisis, all with extensive experience and unique perspectives on the issue:

• Tara Cortes, clinical professor and executive director of the Hartford Institute of Geriatric Nursing at New York University
• Kezia Scales, vice president of research and evaluation at PHI
• Otis Woods, administrator, Division of Quality Assurance, Wisconsin Department of Health Services 

With your host and longtime eldercare policy expert Anne Montgomery, the panel dives into workable solutions that organizations, policymakers, and other leaders can implement now to develop the strong, well-trained, and well-compensated workforce that elders and people living with disabilities deserve.
