Effectively Recruiting, Engaging, and Retaining Staff Presented by: HealthLeaders 10:00 AM - 11:05 AM EDT

Jim Clyne, CEO at LeadingAge, New York
Garry Pezzano, CEO at LeadingAge, Pennsylvania
Infection Prevention and Control Presented by: HealthLeaders 11:10 AM - 12:10 PM EDT
The recent letter from the Association for Professionals in Infection Control and Epidemiology to Congress encouraging mandatory infection prevention staff in nursing homes emphasized the “astounding” lack of attention given to infection control in the nation's nursing homes. Multiple government reports also have highlighted the problem.
Panelists:
Devin Jopp, CEO at The Association for Professionals in Infection Control and Epidemiology (APIC)
Deb BurdsallPhD, RN-BC, CIC, FAPIC, APIC Board Member and Director of infection prevention, Baldwin Hill Solutions LLC
Rural nursing homes face greater challenges than those in urban or suburban areas, such as a smaller talent pool; maintaining census; access to fewer hospitals from which to get referrals; and providing special care for frailer patients with dementia or multiple chronic health conditions.
Panelist:
Carrie Henning-Smith, Assistant professor at University of Minnesota School of Public Health and, Deputy director, University of Minnesota Rural Health Research Center
Deb Paauw, MS, RN, Executive Director, Quality & Data Integration-Senior Services at Avera Health
