The 2024
AHCA/NCAL Quality Summit is where attendees will discover innovative ideas, strategies, and inspiration to ensure that their organizations deliver the highest quality care. This year’s programming and educational sessions are aligned with the seven categories of the Baldrige Criteria for Performance Excellence: leadership, strategy, customers, measurement and analysis, workforce, operations, and results. The Baldrige framework serves as the cornerstone for AHCA/NCAL’s National Quality Award Program, which has helped long term care centers and assisted living communities achieve and sustain performance excellence for over 30 years. The seven categories also intersect with CMS' Quality Assurance/Performance Improvement (QAPI) elements, a regulatory requirement for all CMS-certified nursing facilities.
This year’s
agenda is designed for ease of navigation so that attendee experience is both productive and inspiring. Sessions are noted with icons corresponding to the Baldrige categories, allowing participants to create a personalized agenda that aligns with individual professional focus and goals. For example, clinical leaders, infection preventionists, or human resource professionals may wish to focus on sessions about leadership and workforce or operations and results. Whereas those in leadership positions, such as administrators and directors of nursing, may opt to diversify and maximize their experience by attending sessions in each category.
Whether you choose to focus on specialized topics or plan a journey of exploration across all categories, the 2024 Quality Summit offers a platform for growth, learning, and professional development tailored to your unique needs. Explore our conference agenda to learn more and
