2 Conferences & Full Day Programs Spring Conference May 6-7, 2019 At the 2019 Spring Conference we are asking some tough questions. What if we embraced new ideas without any reservations? What if we empowered our teams to take more strategic risks? What if we dreamed without limits? What if we made life better for older people, our staffs, our communities and Indiana? With over 35 sessions and 40 speakers, there is something for every member of your staff.

During the Summit, participants discuss strategies that create a culture of caring in the workplace, decrease compassion fatigue, and burnout and learn to identify skills and resources that build self-awareness and the ability to cope with stressors associated with aging services. Audience: Nurse Managers, Directors of Nursing, Assistant Directors of Nursing & Supervisors THRIVE: Fall Conference October 7-8, 2019 THRIVE Fall Conference is designed to provide participants with the tools needed to continue to promote and protect the welfare and wellbeing of those they serve.
