2007 Building Bridges Long-Term Care Policy Seminar
February 14, 2006 — 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
Join key policymakers and researchers on Wednesday, February 14, 2007, for a dialogue about important issues in long-term care delivery and financing. Mary Naylor, Ph.D., R.N., University of Pennsylvania School of Nursing, will open the discussion with a presentation on transitions in long-term care, identifying areas where public policy might serve to limit the number of transitions and make those that are necessary more transparent. Naylor's presentation will be followed by a panel of renowned experts will place the evidence in a “real world” policy and operational context, as well as discuss their perceptions of broader long-term care issues and how they might best be addressed. To date, confirmed panelists include Susan Reinhard, Ph.D., co-director of the Rutgers Center for State Health Policy and Meg Bourbonniere, Ph.D., G.N.P., at Yale School of Nursing.
The 2007 Building Bridges Long-Term Care Policy Seminar will be held in conjunction with AcademyHealth's National Health Policy Conference, in Washington, DC. Separate registration is required. For more information, contact ltc@academyhealth.org or visit the seminar website.
