2022 Institute Features Quality Conference and Foundations Bootcamp

Posted on December 23, 2021 by Julie Apold

The Institute & Expo in February includes a full Quality & Patient Safety Conference-within-a-Conference within the conference, plus a full day Foundations of Quality Improvement Boot Camp as a pre-conference option.

LeadingAge Minnesota is committed to supporting our members' quality and performance improvement initiatives. We have included an entire conference track of eight educational sessions within the Institute schedule devoted to the topic.

From establishing a just culture focused on continuous improvement to exploring ethical dilemmas and decisions to optimizing resident health on multiple levels, we have your quality improvement bases covered.

Want more? Add the Foundations of Quality Improvement Boot Camp pre-conference session on Tuesday, Feb. 8 to your schedule. It's a full day that delivers the foundational knowledge necessary to effectively apply quality improvement principles and methods in your organization, case studies, and exercises to gain a deeper practical understanding and resources to take back to strengthen your organization's QI program. Separate registration and fees are required for this pre-conference session.

Institute & Expo is Feb. 9-11 in person at RiverCentre in St. Paul, and all-new virtual sessions are Feb. 22-24. A single registration includes attendance for all staff at a single service site for all Institute days, plus on-demand access to virtual programming and keynotes through April 30.
