The 2023 McKnight’s Workforce Development Forum is a must-attend event for anyone with employees. Period. The pandemic may have exacerbated the difficulties of fully staffing a long-term care, senior living or home care operation. But recruitment and retention will be ongoing challenges, no matter what time frame. Attendees will be offered a series of webinars with practical, workable ideas to improve employee recruitment and retention. These battles won’t go away. The McKnight’s Workforce Development Forum is a way to keep up the good fight.

Participants will learn about the latest methods and research for what’s working and what might not be such a good idea. Also addressed will be which of the “old” approaches are still a good idea, and why. Attendees will be able to ask questions in real time and also earn 3 free continuing education credits during the indicated sessions. This is an outstanding event that all managers and hiring personnel in long-term care, senior living and home care should check out.
