Senior care staff play a key role not only in the organization’s success, but also in the quality of the care that residents receive. While the senior care industry already faced significant staffing shortages pre-pandemic, the COVID-19 pandemic only heightened and exacerbated those challenges. The result? Supporting your staff and creating an employee-friendly workplace is now even more important than ever. That staff support can take many forms, from providing training and quality benefits to developing programs that ensure staff have the resources they need even when outside of work. Building a team of quality staff takes time, as well as financial resources. The better an organization can support its employees, the more appealing a workplace it becomes. Attracting the talented staff needed can become easier, and similarly, organizations can better retain the staff they already have. Read More »

Even before the pandemic, the senior care industry faced many difficulties, including evolving regulations and staffing challenges. The pandemic exacerbated those challenges while also introducing new ones, including an overall loss of trust in the industry and enhanced procedures that strained already limited staff. The introduction of COVID-19 vaccines in 2021 granted the industry some reprieve. Some communities were able to gradually relax some of their social distancing precautions, and the reintroduction of friend and family visits helped to ease some of the strains that isolation had taken on residents. 2021 tested the creativity, resilience, and strength of the senior care industry. In 2022, those same qualities may be key to the industry’s recovery and rebuilding. We’re proud to bring you best practices and actionable advice from industry thought leaders and experts to help guide your path in 2022. Read More »
