(CE)
Monday, Oct. 3

Room 2502
From the COVID-19 pandemic to facility staff turnover and regulatory challenges with how nursing homes are paid, the long-term care industry has been hard-hit the last few years. More patients are aging at home and are less likely to turn to a facility, and facility operators must find new ways to position themselves in the market and boost census rates. LTC expert Irving Stackpole will give a birds-eye view of the changes we expect to see in this marketplace, highlighting opportunities for LTC pharmacies to grow their businesses.
