F31 Purposeful Strategy in a Rapidly Changing World
Change is the only constant. The pace of change is escalating in speed and complexity. The health care environment is mature and consolidated while the senior living environment is growing and emerging. Changes and pressure on health care professionals to increase efficiency and control cost is the catalyst for the migration to population health management.
Population health management is altering care delivery in a dramatic way. Payers are transferring the financial risk and clinical accountability to providers, all the while, incentivizing increased coordination and technology to provide quality care at the most appropriate setting. This setting may be different from the traditional referral patterns.
As senior living organizations, we need to ask key questions such as:
• What are our core competencies? • Who are the right strategic partners? • How will savings be shared? • How will resident satisfaction be sustained? • How do we measure performance?
This session will help senior living organizations to understand these trends, to prepare and to po-tentially capitalize on new resultant opportunities.
Instruction Level: Advanced
Learner Objectives:1. Define and explore emerging trends impact-
ing senior living organizations.2. Identify how senior living organizations can
capitalize on opportunities in the changing environment.
3. Demonstrate, through case studies and anecdotes, how organizations nationally are responding to our rapidly changing world.
Relevant For: Organizational Executives and Board Members

Instruction Level: Intermediate
Learner Objectives:1. Explore the telemedicine service options
that exist.2. Analyze facility preparedness to have a suc-

Continuing Education
LeadingAge Wisconsin has requested this educational program, including the pre-conference seminars, be approved for up to twelve (12.0) hours of continuing education for nursing home administrators. Our request has been submitted to (but not yet approved by) the NAB/NCERS. Call LeadingAge Wisconsin at 608-255-7060 for further information.
Important Note: If you haven’t already done so, please sign up with NAB’s CE Registry as soon as possible in order for the new electronic process to work. (See details on Page 4.)
Many sessions of this conference meet the requirements for continuing edu-cation for social workers as required by Chapter MPSW 8 of the Wisconsin Administrative Code.
Continuing education credit also will be available through the following professional organizations:
• National Certification Council for Activity Professionals
• Certifying Board for Dietary Manag-ers
• Wisconsin Dietetic Association’s Commission on Dietetic Registration
What to Wear
We encourage you to dress casually for all LeadingAge Wisconsin con-vention activities. May weather in Wisconsin Dells can be unpredictable; plan accordingly. Everyone responds differently to climate-controlled envi-ronments. The Kalahari does its best to provide a comfortable climate for our conference; however, sometimes it is warmer or cooler than you pre-fer. We hope you will take this into consideration when preparing for this
conference and wear clothing that can be layered.
Avoid Late Registration Surcharges
To qualify for the standard conference registration fee, your registration form and full remittance must be mailed to LeadingAge Wisconsin by April 11, 2018. If your registration is mailed after April 11, 2018, you will be charged a late registration surcharge of $25 per person.
Meal Tickets
Tickets for all meal functions are in-cluded in the registration fee for con-ference delegates. Because the registra-tion fee is calculated as an all-inclusive package, no discounts will be given to delegates who opt not to participate in meal functions or special activities. In order to keep your registration fees as low as possible, LeadingAge Wisconsin needs to know how many people will be attending each meal function. On your registration form, please indicate the number of registrants from your organization who will participate in each of these functions.
Special Needs
If you have dietary restrictions, or if you have a disability and would like special accommodation, please check the appropriate space on the registra-tion form and describe your request in writing on a separate sheet of paper. Send this information with your con-ference registration form.
