Plan for 2021 and Beyond: Caring, Healing, and Building a Better Future for Post-Acute and Long-Term Care

As a newly hired nursing home medical director in the 1990s, I felt unprepared for the challenges of the position. I looked for education and training specific to this care setting and was delighted to find, and join, the American Medical Directors Association, which subsequently became AMDA – The Society for Post-Acute and Long-Term Care Medicine. Over the ensuing 25 years, I have had the privilege of being an active member of our Society. Like many of our leaders, I’ve spent countless hours serving on the Board of Directors, working on multiple committees and workgroups, helping d raft clinical practice guidelines, making Capitol Hill visits, and attending almost every Annual Conference since the mid-1990s.
