Returning<br />
Deal or No Deal<br />
Deal or No Deal is making a return to this year’s convention. When checking in at the registration desk,<br />
each attendee will receive a numbered “suitcase.” The numbers on the suitcases will correspond with<br />
prizes and a limited number of suitcases will contain a chance to be placed in the grand prize drawing!<br />
The grand prize drawing will take place during the Tribute after party Wednesday evening. And to make<br />
things even more exciting, those attendees who attend the after party, but did not receive a grand<br />
prize drawing suitcase, will also be eligible for prizes.<br />

Since its inception in 1950, IHCA has continued to grow in size and scope. Here are<br />
just some of the services provided to members:<br />
Public Policy<br />
Active involvement in legislative initiatives,<br />
regulatory issues and political activities is<br />
vital to our success.<br />
The <strong>Health</strong> <strong>Care</strong> Council of <strong>Illinois</strong> (HCCI) carries the<br />
geriatric public policy banner for both the <strong>Illinois</strong> <strong>Health</strong> <strong>Care</strong> <strong>Association</strong> and the<br />
<strong>Illinois</strong> Council on Long Term <strong>Care</strong>. This joint venture enables the long term care<br />
profession to speak with a stronger, unified voice for the residents served in nursing<br />
homes in <strong>Illinois</strong>. HCCI tracks legislation, informs and updates members and generates<br />
grassroots activities when appropriate.<br />
The Center for Developmental Disabilities Advocacy and Community Supports<br />
(CDDACS) works on behalf of the facilities and programs for the developmentally<br />
disabled that are part of the IHCA membership. The Center employs staff dedicated<br />
solely to achieving its specific goals and objectives, including tracking legislation,<br />
impacting the regulatory environment, organizing grassroots activities and working<br />
with legislators to educate them on issues more specific to its mission.<br />
In addition, both organizations monitor the state’s political climate and raise funds<br />
to support legislative candidates for public office who support effective, adequatelyfunded,<br />
quality long term care and ID/DD issues.<br />
Pertinent Educational Seminars<br />
IHCA offers a variety of educational opportunities<br />
for long term care professionals to expand their<br />
knowledge, skills, and horizons. The Education,<br />
Convention and Trade Show Committee assists IHCA staff in the planning of the<br />
education agenda by identifying appropriate topics related to the needs and issues of the<br />

the Great<br />
profession. IHCA is approved as a sponsor of continuing education for nursing home administrators, nurses,<br />
social workers, physical therapists and physical therapy assistants by the <strong>Illinois</strong> Department of Financial and<br />
Professional Regulation.<br />

the internet. Four times each year, we offer the most respected review course in the state to help you prepare for<br />
the nursing home administrator licensure exam.<br />
Once again, IHCA joined with the <strong>Illinois</strong> Council on Long Term <strong>Care</strong> (ICLTC) to implement the Education<br />
Access Nursing Academy, which offers monthly web seminars exclusively for licensed nurses. This additional<br />
education resource provides facilities an effective way for nurses to receive required continuing education credits.<br />

Annual Convention and Trade Show<br />
IHCA hosts the state’s largest convention and trade show for long<br />
term care professionals. This much-anticipated event features more<br />
than 100 educational sessions covering a wide range of pertinent<br />
topics, as well as exhibits demonstrating the latest technology and<br />
services in the profession. Continuing education credits are offered<br />
for administrators, social workers, licensed nurses, certified dietary<br />
managers, registered dietitians, physical therapists, qualified service<br />
professionals and certified public accountants. For those disciplines<br />
not preapproved for continuing education credit, IHCA staff will<br />
provide any needed assistance to help you submit for approval to the<br />
appropriate crediting institution or organization.<br />
In addition to offering educational advantages, the acclaimed<br />
convention and trade show also offers entertainment and social events,<br />
to give you plenty of opportunities for networking and relaxing. An<br />
awards ceremony pays tribute to the state’s top volunteers, nurses,<br />
administrators, RSDs, and other staff members.<br />
Help Us Spread the Word!<br />
We encourage our members to share their pride with others who<br />
could benefit from a proactive, long term care association. Please<br />
let us know their names and phone numbers so we can contact<br />
them, or ask them to give us a call. We would love to explain the<br />
benefits of IHCA to them. We encourage you to support IHCA<br />
and take an active role in the association’s activities so you may<br />
continue making a difference in long term care.<br />

Franklin D. Roosevelt<br />
instituted the Social Security Act.<br />
In the 1920s, health examiners<br />
almost uniformly showed that very<br />
few people were healthy and normal,<br />
which helped to foster the belief that<br />
Americans needed more medical care<br />
and health supervision.<br />
Without a federal assistance program<br />
to help pay for the care of elderly<br />
or disabled, most states sent their<br />
impoverished citizens to “poor farms”<br />
or “almshouses.”<br />
In the 1930s, The New Deal helped<br />
promote the idea that elderly citizens<br />
should receive federal benefits on<br />
the basis of need. Social Security is<br />
now universal, and only tangentially<br />
needs-based.<br />

Tuesday, Sept. 11, 1:45 – 3 p.m.<br />
Murray Banks has been a speaker and trainer since 1984 creating a niche with custom tailored<br />
keynotes. While all speakers aspire to personalizing their presentations, Murray developed that<br />
skill as an educator, teaching at every level from grade school to graduate school! In 1982 he<br />
was honored as Vermont’s Teacher of the Year for Physical Education and in 1983 received<br />
the Outstanding Educator Award from the national association, AAHPHRD. He taught in a<br />
city school district, a small rural school and a major university; coached teams that won state<br />
championships and teams that never won a game; and 40 years later is still coaching youth sports<br />
in his community. At the same time he was achieving educational honors, Murray was winning<br />
his first of four National Championships in the Triathlon. Two times he has been one of the top<br />
finishers in the Ironman Triathlon World Championship in Hawaii. Taking a break from public<br />
education enabled Murray to blend two passions – racing at the highest levels and teaching outside the structure<br />
of a classroom. His audiences now get the best of both worlds … a dynamic, interactive teaching style and a focused,<br />
world class mindset. The elements of risk, adaptability and toughness are natural connections to Murray’s message as<br />
organizations work through these tough economic times.<br />

Over the past 20 years Tim Bedore has spent thousands of hours entertaining<br />
audiences, first on the radio and then as a comedian,<br />
headlining comedy clubs across the country. One of the<br />
few comics to have combined the disciplines of standup<br />
comedy and broadcasting, Tim knows the rigors<br />
of working within demanding parameters. Tim has<br />
kept his hand in the radio business through his radio<br />
commentary feature Vague But True, which is heard<br />
(since 1997) regularly on public radio’s prestigious<br />
Marketplace program by over six-million people, and<br />
the equally large audience on The Bob and Tom Show,<br />
syndicated all across the country. Tim Bedore is a stand-up comedian whose<br />
unique background has produced a very professional entertainer who knows how<br />
to cut across the boundaries of individual attitudes and get an audience to enjoy<br />
his way of looking at the world.<br />

a dull moment in their set. A Brat Pack show is more than a<br />
performance, it’s a party!<br />
Prizes, prizes, and more prizes! Not only will the<br />
winner of the Grand Prize Giveaway be announced during<br />
the Tribute after party, but lots of other prizes will be given<br />
away! In addition to those that received a special “suitcase”<br />
during registration, anyone attending the party will be<br />
eligible for prizes. Don’t miss out on the fun!<br />
In the 1940s, during World<br />
War II, more than 3 million<br />
women were recruited for<br />
war-related jobs.<br />
While President Harry<br />
Truman lobbied hard for a<br />
national health insurance<br />
program in the 1940s, the<br />
AMA lobbied hard against<br />
it, calling it “socialized<br />
medicine,” and turned the<br />
polls completely around<br />
from a plan favored by the<br />
American people to one that<br />
was vanishing.<br />
The baby boom began in<br />
1945 and reached its height<br />
in 1947, but it continued<br />
for another 17 years. The<br />
baby boom placed in high<br />
demand goods and services<br />
associated with the boom,<br />
with the purchase of a home<br />
being the largest expenditure.<br />
Nostalgia for the 1950s began<br />
while memories of the decade<br />
were still fresh. Tail-finned<br />
cars, hula hoops, poodle<br />
skirts, Elvis Presley, mothers<br />
in aprons, and “Leave<br />
It To Beaver” conjure<br />
up images of a genial<br />
time that seems better,<br />
softer, simpler. Indeed, the<br />
years from 1950 to 1959<br />
were a time of optimism,<br />
domesticity, security<br />
through compliance with<br />
the system, and apparent<br />
simplicity.<br />

In the 1960s and 1970s,<br />
government-funded<br />
projects to increase health<br />
care for the poor were<br />
on the rise. This gave all<br />
mid-level health care<br />
workers a tremendous<br />
increase in jobs and<br />
opportunities.<br />
In the early 1970s, the<br />
sense of crisis in health<br />
care was accompanied by<br />
considerable optimism<br />
about the possibilities for<br />
successful reform.<br />
In 1974, the incentives<br />
that favored hospital<br />
care promoted the<br />
neglect of ambulatory<br />
and preventive<br />
health services. The<br />
incentives that favored<br />
specialization also<br />
caused primary care to be<br />
neglected.<br />
The concept of “health<br />
care as a matter of right,<br />
not privilege” captured<br />
the spirit of the time<br />
better than any other<br />
single idea.<br />

Infection control should be second nature by now, but it isn’t. The <strong>Illinois</strong> Department of Public <strong>Health</strong> (IDPH)<br />
is taking a new look at infection control, and is finding widespread deficiencies. Even a comprehensive policy with<br />
consistent training may not ensure compliance with best practices. Policies that aren’t followed just won’t work. This<br />
session will identify good infection control practices, and will offer suggestions to ensure compliance at every level of<br />
your organization.<br />

The Importance of Touch to Long Term <strong>Care</strong> Residents<br />
Stephanie Sutton, Licensed Massage Therapist<br />
Track CNA, NUR<br />
It has been proven that from the time we are born, touch is very important. This need for human contact is carried<br />
with us throughout our lives. As a direct caregiver you have the unique and important ability to provide relaxation and<br />
comfort to those you care for simply by knowing how to provide a special touch. Attend this session and learn how to<br />
incorporate a relaxing touch during normal care routines.<br />

A Road Map to <strong>Care</strong>: Making the Laws and Guidelines Work FOR You!<br />
Diana Waugh, RN, BSN, Waugh Consulting<br />
Track MULTI<br />
“How can we possibly provide person-centered care in light of all those rules and regulations?” “It would be great to<br />
be involved in a cultural change at our facility, but do you really think it can be done?” “If there were standards of care<br />
and guidelines to assure success, maybe then it would work.” There are! We have in our hands the goals of quality care,<br />
the steps that can lead to quality care, and the evaluation tools that will point out if the care was at the quality level<br />
expected…the federal survey guidelines! They are available 365 days a year and can be used by every member of the<br />
facility team. This session will focus on how the federal guidelines can be utilized each day by all staff as part of the<br />
facility’s commitment to providing person-centered care. It will look at the power federal guideline knowledge gives to<br />
all staff members and how these guidelines can assist when working with physicians, families and concerned community<br />
members. Attend this session and you will laugh and learn how to make the template of care live in your facility.<br />
Successful Retention: Recipe for Success<br />
Khrys Kantarze, BS, MA, LNHA, Maun-Lemke Speaking & Consulting, LLC<br />
Track ADM<br />
Successful retention…why do we care? Every year budgets get tighter and tighter and organizations are forced to do<br />
more with less. Improving employee retention is one way to achieve cost reductions without cutting supplies or services.<br />
Stable staff usually goes hand in hand with good service and care. The cost of hiring and orientating new employees<br />
is, on average, two times the annual wage. The turnover rate for healthcare averages over 90% nationally. Improving<br />
retention can help ease your budget challenges and it doesn’t have to be hard or expensive; but just like any good recipe<br />
a successful plan must have all the key ingredients.<br />
Evaluating the High Exposure Nursing Home Case: How a Simple Negligence Case Can<br />
Turn Catastrophic<br />
Neville Bilimoria, JD, Duane Morris LLP<br />
Michael Komoll, JD, CNA Insurance<br />
Track ADM<br />
Recent verdicts in 2012 show that nursing home negligence cases are even more at risk for high jury verdicts, with one<br />
verdict registering at $900 million. Every day events occur in nursing facilities that can be benign or that can turn into a<br />
high-value, high-exposure negligence case against a nursing home. Insurance companies look and evaluate to minimize<br />
an incident and avoid high-exposure claims against a facility.<br />

Marilyn Holt, PT, MHS, GCS, LTC Support<br />
Track DD<br />
<strong>Health</strong>y strategies for successful aging should be available with adults with developmental disabilities. Compressing<br />
frailty and reducing falls can be accomplished with targeted interventions. Incontinence can be a contributor to falls,<br />
frailty and reduced social engagement. This session will explore incontinence evaluation and management.<br />
Culture Change for the Diabetic’s Diet<br />
Donna Manring, DTR, Maun-Lemke Speaking & Consulting, LLC<br />
Track DIET<br />
Research indicates long term care residents eat better when they are given a less restrictive diet of regular foods rather<br />
than a calorie-controlled diet. Physicians and clinicians may need education on the American Medical Directors<br />
<strong>Association</strong> (AMDA) or ADA that emphasizes the physician’s greater responsibility to control unacceptable blood<br />
glucose levels by pharmacological means and in consideration of the individual’s food consumption and activity level—<br />
not by an overly restrictive diet order.<br />
Activities in the 4th Dimension: Exploring New Horizons in Program Planning<br />

Would You Take a Drink Please? Combating Dehydration at the Front Line<br />
Diana Waugh, RN, BSN, Waugh Consulting<br />
Track CNA, NUR<br />
8:30 – 10 a.m. (<strong>1.5</strong> <strong>CEs</strong>)<br />
Perhaps the first line of defense against dehydration is to revisit the needs of your staff and set expectations that they will<br />
not be dehydration examples. This requires that there are fluids available to them as well as time for them to consume<br />
the fluids. Rewarding nurses who “skip lunch” or aides who “work right through their breaks” doesn’t demonstrate a<br />
true belief in combating dehydration. This session will look at ways to combat dehydration in both the residents and<br />
staff. How about asking “Would you take a drink, please” for starters? Attend this fact-and-fun filled session and see how<br />
to make hydration a win/win experience.<br />

Leslie Pedtke, LNHA, Aviston Countryside Manor<br />
Track ADM, MULTI<br />
“Through the Looking Glass” is a program developed to educate caregivers on empathy by placing them in the shoes of<br />
a long term care resident. Our staff have moved into the nursing home and participated in daily challenges in an effort<br />
to learn what their daily lives are like. We have expanded this program into our orientation of new staff. All new staff<br />
must spend their first three shifts living as a resident before any formal orientation begins.<br />
Creating a <strong>Health</strong>y Balance: Work, Life and Play<br />
Donna Manring, DTR, Maun-Lemke Speaking & Consulting, LLC<br />
Track MULTI<br />
Feel like you are running around frazzled trying to get everything done? Is your “to do” list getting longer and the time<br />
to get it all done getting shorter? Are you a procrastinator? The trends in healthcare today expect you to get more done<br />
in less time. It’s not always how hard you work, it’s how much you get done in the time you have. Learn how to schedule<br />
effectively and get the most done in the least amount of time. Set realistic goals, improve your time management skills<br />
and know when to delegate! Reduce stress by applying time management techniques that put time on your side. Invest<br />
in time management skills that will actually save you time and money…which allows you to work smarter!<br />
Exploring a Creative Arts Program as an Approach to Day Training<br />
Karla Belzer, MS, CTRS, Exceptional <strong>Care</strong> and Training Center<br />
Track DD<br />
In 2009, Exceptional <strong>Care</strong> and Training Center (ECTC) was awarded an Innovations in Long Term <strong>Care</strong> grant to<br />
implement a Creative Arts Program as an approach to Day Training. This session will feature an in-depth study of the<br />

Opening remarks by IHCA President Holgeir Oksnevad and IHCA Executive Director Dave Voepel will be followed by<br />
the keynote address.<br />
Murray Banks has been a speaker and trainer since 1984 creating a niche with custom tailored<br />
keynotes. While all speakers aspire to personalizing their presentations, Murray developed that<br />
skill as an educator, teaching at every level from grade school to graduate school! In 1982 he<br />
was honored as Vermont’s Teacher Of The Year for Physical Education and in 1983 received<br />
the Outstanding Educator Award from the national association, AAHPHRD. He taught in a<br />
city school district, a small rural school and a major university; coached teams that won state<br />
championships and teams that never won a game; and 40 years later is still coaching youth<br />
sports in his community. At the same time he was achieving educational honors, Murray was<br />
winning his first of four National Championships in the Triathlon. Two times he has been<br />
one of the top finishers in the Ironman Triathlon World Championship in Hawaii. Taking a break from<br />
public education enabled Murray to blend two passions – racing at the highest levels and teaching outside the structure<br />
of a classroom. His audiences now get the best of both worlds … a dynamic, interactive teaching style and a focused,<br />
world class mindset. The elements of risk, adaptability and toughness are natural connections to Murray’s message as<br />
organizations work through these tough economic times.<br />

Betsy Anderson, Vice President, FR&R <strong>Health</strong>care Consulting, Inc.<br />
Marilyn Mines, RN, BS, RAC-CT, FR&R <strong>Health</strong>care Consulting, Inc.<br />
Track SS<br />
Admission to a SNF as a Medicare resident can bring with it many choices for a beneficiary. Once the SNF has<br />
determined if they meet all eligibility criteria, the resident and family may not know the many choices available to the<br />
resident. Is the Medicare program currently in place the best for this resident? Choices between Medicare Advantage<br />
or traditional Medicare coverage, palliative care under the original Medicare benefit or Medicare hospice coverage<br />
may require explanation. This session will provide the attendees with the tools to assist residents and their families in<br />
understanding the differences between the various Medicare programs to make the most appropriate choice.<br />
Proper Repairs for K-Tag Deficiencies Ensuring Life Safety Code Compliance<br />
Joe Wiener, CDT, AIA, NCARB, Farnsworth Group<br />
Track ENV<br />
Typical plans of correction include repairs to the physical plant. Life Safety Code compliance depends upon properly<br />
repairing or installing materials in such a way so as to provide the required fire resistance rating. All caulks are not equal<br />
and not all assemblies need to have 1-hour fire resistance.<br />
The CNA’s Role in Abuse Prevention<br />
Susan Gardiner, BSN, RN, LNHA, <strong>Illinois</strong> Council on Long Term <strong>Care</strong><br />
Track CNA, NUR<br />
In the past several years there has been increased attention placed on allegations of abuse, neglect and misappropriation<br />
of property in long term care. The number of CNAs that have lost certification or faced legal challenges has more than<br />
doubled. CNAs must know what constitutes abuse and what their responsibility is in reporting incidents and allegations.<br />
CNAs must also learn how to cope in stressful situations. This session will review all abuse regulations, the CNA’s<br />
responsibility and coping mechanisms CNAs can use to reduce stress.<br />

Positive Leadership for Today’s Generations<br />

Hot Topics in Employment Law<br />
Jon Zimring, JD, Duane Morris LLP<br />
Track ADM<br />
The laws governing the employment relationship are continually evolving and changing. Employers need to be alert<br />
to these changes and effectively train supervisors and managers on how to reduce the risk of employment liability.<br />
This session will address hot topics surrounding both federal and state laws and legal decisions that affect how <strong>Illinois</strong><br />

Nursing Documentation: Importance of Accurate and Appropriate Charting<br />
Michael Airdo, JD, Kopon Airdo, LLC<br />
Patrick Cella, JD, Kopon Airdo, LLC<br />
Track NUR<br />
Nursing home litigation is on the rise. When a lawsuit ensues, the best evidence to either prove or disprove a resident’s<br />
claim lies within the nursing home chart. We will discuss the importance of accurate and “appropriate” charting, as well as<br />
provide real life examples of how charting has helped, and hurt, a facility during litigation. Stressing the importance of good<br />

Going Green in the healthcare market will not only be for the kitchens but for every area as we discuss using green<br />
products or “going green” (chemicals, water usage, energy usage, buying local, etc.). This is a topic that all communities,<br />
facilities, homes and restaurants are in need of as they try to be more efficient, help sustain the environment and follow<br />
safety in all areas of their operation. Most healthcare facilities want to begin but sometimes starting a “green” campaign<br />
is too big, so minimizing it to smaller projects is the best way to begin. We will discuss areas from which you can choose<br />
to start “going green”- be it with cleaning products, energy efficiency, reducing packaging or buying local.<br />

Without question, the long term care workforce is becoming increasingly diverse. While historically dominated by the<br />
Baby Boomer generation, the average age of the long term care worker is slowly and steadily dropping. Now, more than<br />

Every day in skilled nursing homes across the country, good intentions steeped in the spirit of interdepartmental<br />

delivery of that care. As a direct consequence facilities forfeit billing and payments associated with rendering skilled<br />
services. Medicare reimbursement reductions nearing 11% have prompted facilities to escalate efforts toward improving<br />
operational efficiency. Often missed is the clinical practice of curbside fixes.<br />

Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder: An Under Recognized Cause of Behavioral Problems<br />
Steven Thornton, MD, University of <strong>Illinois</strong> College of Medicine at Peoria<br />
Track DD<br />
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is an under recognized disorder in both the general population and in people<br />
with intellectual disabilities. PTSD is a severe anxiety disorder that is caused by experiencing a real or threatened<br />
traumatic event. Symptoms include those related to re-experiencing the event (nightmares/flashbacks), hyper arousal,<br />
and avoidance. These symptoms can be presented and observed in a number of ways including sleep disturbances,<br />
impulsivity, agitation and self-destructive behaviors. Diagnosing PTSD in people with intellectual disabilities is very<br />

In 2010, the National <strong>Association</strong> of Activity Professionals (NAAP) responded to its members’ requests for a new<br />
credentialing option. NAAP worked closely with a group of activity professionals to form a Credentialing Committee<br />
charged with developing new professional standards for certification at two levels: Activity Professional - Board Certified<br />
(AP-BC) and Activity Consultant - Board Certified (AC-BC). This session will assist activity professionals in the process<br />
of becoming Board Certified.<br />
The “Magic” of a Long Term <strong>Care</strong> <strong>Care</strong>er<br />

<strong>Health</strong>care professionals are challenged every day to make a difference by putting other people first. This journey leads<br />
to many opportunities for self-discovery and personal development. While a long term care career may have many twists<br />
and turns in the road, it is no doubt one of the most engaging opportunities an individual can possess in their lifetime.<br />

Make the Most of the Development and Implementation of Compliance Plans<br />
Betsy Anderson, Vice President, FR&R <strong>Health</strong>care Consulting, Inc.<br />
Nick Lynn, JD, Duane Morris LLP<br />
Track ADM<br />
Skilled nursing facilities are required to develop and implement compliance plans by March of 2013. With less than a<br />
year to go, facilities must begin the implementation of a compliance plan in order to meet the deadline. This session will<br />
review the model compliance plan issued by the OIG and explain the seven required elements of a compliance plan. It<br />
will also provide practical guidance on how a SNF can ensure they have an effective plan.<br />
Introduction to No Contact, No Drug Behavior De-Escalation: The Virtual Tranquilizer ®<br />
Andra Medea, MA, Medea & Associates, Inc.<br />
Zac Mucha, LCSW, Community Counseling Centers of Chicago<br />
Track MULTI<br />
New regulations require nursing home staff to intervene to prevent aggressive incidents from residents with mental<br />
illness. This seminar is an introduction to Virtual Tranquilizer® techniques, which are effective de-escalation tools for<br />
mental health professionals. Techniques are designed to reduce PRNs, decrease the likelihood of violence, and improve<br />
safety for staff and residents. This workshop will also introduce the 5-stage conflict escalation model, used by the<br />
Chicago Police Department’s Crisis Intervention Teams.<br />

Track THER<br />
While therapy services may look similar in different provider settings, there are specific regulations that must be<br />
followed in each. This session will explore the various post-acute provider settings as we look at what therapists may do<br />
in each and the regulations that must be followed. We’ll take a close look at inpatient and outpatient SNF, home health,<br />
hospice, assisted living and independent living settings.<br />
Help Me PLEASE...Time Management Skills<br />
Danette Temple, RN, Alden Management<br />
Track NUR<br />
Nursing crisis…nursing retention…the list goes on and on! Ever wonder why we can’t retain nurses or why individuals<br />
are not going into the nursing field? Many of them are feeling trapped and have experienced “burn-out syndrome.”<br />
They desperately need help with time management skills. This was not a course that was taught in nursing school and<br />
many of us have had to stumble through to be successful. The demands on nurses are intense. They want to succeed<br />
but have never received the road map to success as it relates to time management. This session will identify some basic<br />
survival skills in time management and coping that will equip the nurse with tools so he or she can be successful in<br />
completing all tasks required during a normal working day.<br />

Managing Food Allergies, Intolerances and Preferences<br />
Susan L. Farrell, MBA, RD, SLF Consulting & Training<br />
Track DIET<br />
More facilities are admitting residents with food allergies. Are they truly allergies, however? This session discusses the<br />
difference between a food allergy, food intolerance and food preference. If it is an allergy, very strict precautions must be<br />
taken to keep the person safe. If it is not an allergy, the diet will become unnecessarily restrictive by following procedures<br />
for allergies. How to manage allergies and how to keep food safe, including avoiding cross-contact, will be discussed.<br />
Role of the Activity Department in Stress Management<br />
Al Litwiller, MHA, Omnicare<br />
Track ACT<br />
Working in long term care today is extremely stressful for all staff. In addition, almost every employee brings major<br />
stress from home and personal lives. This session will help us to identify the major stressors in our lives and what the<br />
activity staff can do to assist in lowering both work and personal stressors.<br />

Telemedicine for After Hour Medical <strong>Care</strong> in the Post-Acute Skilled Nursing Facility<br />
David Chess, MD, Paragon Clinical LLC / eSNF, LLC<br />
Track ADM<br />
With healthcare financing in upheaval, hospitals must have true care partners to meet financial goals. Traditionally,<br />
nursing facilities’ infrastructures deterred them from managing complex medical problems, resulting in a 23+%<br />
national hospital readmission average from post-acute nursing facilities. eSNF and Paragon Clinical (in collaboration<br />
with Lexington <strong>Health</strong> Network) use a specialized telemedicine unit to see and interview SNF patients after hours with<br />
comprehensive digital examination capabilities. The service’s significant impact in reducing hospitalizations has been<br />
well-received by attending staff, nurses and patients.<br />
Leadership Challenges in Long Term <strong>Care</strong><br />
Alan Litwiller, MHA, Omnicare<br />
Track NUR<br />
As we face an environment of more regulations, more surveyors, more violations, less revenue and less census, even<br />
more is expected of every long term care supervisor. During this session we will identify practical leadership skills<br />
necessary to keep us all successful in this difficult environment.<br />

Teaching Ten Important Goals to People with Special Needs of All Ages<br />
Barbara Doyle, MS<br />
Track DD<br />
There is not enough time or enough money to teach children and adults with developmental and learning differences<br />
every skill that they need to have. Services must focus efforts on prioritized goals that result in becoming safe members<br />

for a full life in the community so that teams (parents, families, staff, professionals, etc.) can maximize the use of their<br />

There’s More to Enteral Nutrition than Pumps and Formula<br />
Linda Roberts, MS, RD, Linda Roberts & Associates Inc.<br />
Track DIET<br />
Enteral nutrition plays a vital role in senior living. Individuals nourished via tube feeding formulas reside in skilled<br />
care, assisted living and independent living. This session will investigate regulatory requirements, ethical considerations,<br />
person centered values and end-of-life discussion with residents and/or families with loved ones sustained by enteral<br />
nutrition.<br />
Time in a Bottle: Capturing Memories Through 1:1 and Small Group<br />
Kimberly Jornd, CTRS, Outcome Services of <strong>Illinois</strong><br />
Track ACT<br />
As long term care progresses and different options become available to the elderly population, the types of individuals<br />
that are coming in to nursing homes have changed. We now see individuals with a higher level of need related to all<br />
areas of their lives and this is affecting all departments. The Activity Department is struggling with programming and<br />
meeting the residents’ specific needs. In this time of budget cuts, leisure barriers, and personal preferences, we need to<br />
re-think our programming and re-structure our day. More emphasis needs to be placed on small group programming,<br />
sensory stimulation and 1:1’s. These programs can be the most difficult to plan and implement. Let this session help you<br />
get started in the right direction.<br />
The Future of Reimbursement Is Now: Take Action Today<br />
Clint Maun, CSP, Maun-Lemke Speaking & Consulting, LLC<br />
Track ADM<br />
Look at the healthcare changes now in process and slated for the future. The U.S. government has an aggressive agenda<br />
which will considerably affect reimbursement for healthcare providers. The new healthcare system requires providers to<br />
be more competitive and customer service oriented to receive their full reimbursement. These stated changes are already<br />
having huge implications related to partnerships, integration and guaranteed outcomes. This session will provide up-todate<br />
strategies to assist providers to begin action planning today to assure their future marketplace viability.<br />

earlier start time, to changes to the various games on the course, we think you’ll like this year’s<br />
event. Of course, your participation in this event helps raise funds for the critical activities of<br />
the association and the Political Action Committee, which supports candidates who are prolong<br />
term care. So come on out to WeaverRidge and enjoy the day with us!<br />
Prizes will be awarded for men and women and include the longest drive, shortest drive,<br />
closest to the pin, longest putt, and others.<br />
Shuttle buses will be available to transport golf participants from each of the “official”<br />
hotels (listed on page 38) to and from WeaverRidge Golf Club and to and from the Past<br />
Presidents Welcome Reception on the Peoria Riverfront. More details to follow on times.<br />
New for This Year<br />
Take a Swing at (or near) Your President or Executive Director! If you’re looking<br />
to win this tournament, this probably isn’t the foursome for you. But, if you’d like to spend a<br />
few hours golfing with either of these two guys, you can make a bid below for the opportunity.<br />
The highest bidders will be included in their two foursomes! With the way these guys play,<br />
it makes more sense for you to bid lower than the standard amount. However, this is a<br />
fundraiser, so we hope you’ll indulge us by making a generous bid. Also, as a token of our<br />
