SUMMARY:Healthcare at Home & in Community - New Era Workforce
DESCRIPTION:The way we live and work changes our expectations in work and community living.  Healthcare usually invokes the thought to hospitals and acute care.  It also changes our perceptions of how we live and age in communities.   Whether it is assisted living\, long-term care\, or care at home\, these changes impact immediate and extended families .\nWith the shifts in technology adoption\, learning and upskilling\, the workforce will also change.\n\nOn August 16 2023\, panel speakers from Covenant Health\, Christenson Communities and NorQuest College will share insights on their build-outs\, models of care for assisted living\, longterm care\, and homecare and future workforce skills and needs.

So what does this mean for the current workforce in healthcare?\nJoin and find out!\n\nOrganizations as a result will look to bridge skills gaps and focus on aligning values and interests with new hires more effectively and efficiently – opening new  doors to new entrants through upskilling and training.\n\nDate:  August 16 2023\nTime:  12:00 Noon Speaker Panel\n12:20 PM Networking AMA Breakout Rooms with Speakers and Advisors\n1:00 PM AMA Ends\nFREE Registration: http://bit.ly/3q5ZtCD\n\n
