The Future of Home Care: Why Workforce Matters
This presentation is based on the premise that a competent, well-trained staff is key to successful operations and quality outcomes for home health and home care agencies in Oregon and across the country. Dr. Stone will provide an overview of the state and national home health/home care landscape, highlighting current and future projections of agency growth and the demand for and supply of staff, particularly nurses and home care aides. This will be followed by a discussion of the key policy and workforce development challenges to this growing care sector, including the lack of quality education and training and barriers to recruitment and retention of staff at all levels. The presentation concludes with examples of best practices—both evidence-based and promising—that can help agencies address the challenges and take advantage of the opportunities for growth and success.

Learn what services can be provided in the home, especially for seniors, and hear about day-to-day practicalities of funding and regulatory barriers, staff safety, and workforce issues.

Best Practices Professional Roundtable Exchange
Stick around for our annual interactive roundtable discussion session, dude! We’ve designed tis session to promote and encourage networking amongst your peers and engage in lively informal discussion about topics that are keeping you up at night. Come share your frustrations, solve problems, and glean practical advice and best practices from those in your field. This is your opportunity to interact one-on-one with your peers to make sure you walk away with the answers that you are seeking.
Here’s how it works! Each table will have a sign indicating the roundtable topic being covered. Attendees will pick a topic of interest and sit down at the table. The table moderator will provide a quick introduction and overview of the topic, and then open the floor for Q&A. This is a “rapid fire” session and every 20 minutes we will ask attendees to move to another topic table while the moderator welcomes a new batch of attendees.
Don’t forget to bring your business cards! All attendees are encouraged to handout their business cards to others who they can call on for help.
State of the Industry Update
This session will provide an update on state and federal issues affecting our industry. Presenters to be announced.
