Back to cover 28 WEDNESDAY 3 – 4:30 p.m. (1.5 CEs) The Future of Medicare from 30,000 Feet Scott Wilson, MS, Heritage Healthcare Track THER Regardless of your political beliefs, if you look at Medicare from an unbiased view, the vast majority of Americans believe the current system is unsustainable. So what does that mean for the long term care profession? What does that mean for the Baby Boomers? This session will look at the current system and why it is not sustainable. We will also discuss the current proposals to “save Medicare” such as Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs) and Bundled Payments. We will wrap up by discussing how long term care facilities can “frand” or position themselves for future success.

Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder: An Under Recognized Cause of Behavioral Problems Steven Thornton, MD, University of Illinois College of Medicine at Peoria Track DD Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is an under recognized disorder in both the general population and in people with intellectual disabilities. PTSD is a severe anxiety disorder that is caused by experiencing a real or threatened traumatic event. Symptoms include those related to re-experiencing the event (nightmares/flashbacks), hyper arousal, and avoidance. These symptoms can be presented and observed in a number of ways including sleep disturbances, impulsivity, agitation and self-destructive behaviors. Diagnosing PTSD in people with intellectual disabilities is very challenging. However, when recognized, following newer pharmacological treatment can result in dramatic behavioral improvement. This session will include case presentations, review of the diagnostic criteria and the treatment strategy.
