New Blog Post: Creating a Culture of Wellness: A Leadership Series on Wellness in Long- Term Care
What makes a long-term care community truly feel like a place of wellness? It goes beyond beautiful spaces and well-run programs – it lives in the small, human moments that happen throughout each day. In this month’s leadership blog, we explore how culture, not just environment, shapes the quality of daily life for the people we support. Read on to discover how a simple shift in mindset can turn everyday interactions into the heartbeat of a thriving community.
Healthcare Academy attends LTC 100!
Healthcare Academy was proud to attend the 2026 LTC 100 Leadership Conference as an official Partner, and it was a great few days connecting with some of the most influential leaders in skilled nursing. Our team had the opportunity to attend sessions covering the latest trends and challenges shaping the future of long-term care – from workforce development and regulatory updates to quality improvement strategies and AI.
Our team also had meaningful conversations with organizations focused on elevating quality, simplifying compliance, and making training more effective for staff. It was an exceptional conference!
Product Feature: Course Assignment
Your time is valuable and manually assigning courses shouldn’t be what fills it. Healthcare Academy’s Course Assignment feature automates the process for both current staff and new hires, with a customizable schedule that puts you in control of the timing.
It’s a simple change that makes a big difference. Contact us to learn more!
