32021 Annual Meeting and Exhibition

Hello LeadingAge Missouri Members & Supporters!

We invite you to participate in LeadingAge Missouri’s 52nd Annual Meeting & Exhibition September 20-22 at the Chase Park Plaza Royal Sonesta Hotel in St. Louis!

Recently, I traveled our State visiting LeadingAge Missouri members. That’s significant for two reasons. First, while COVID-19 continues to challenge us (parts of our State have high positivity rates), with prudent precautions, it’s safe for groups to gather.

Second, it’s important for our membership to engage in activities that enhance our service to Missouri seniors. We cannot forever isolate, we must not stagnate, we must move

“FORWARD”.

“FORWARD” is the theme for this year’s gathering of Missouri’s best aging services providers and supporters. After last year’s “Virtual Fall Forum”, we are intentionally “going back” (to in-person attendance) to

move FORWARD! There’s no “masking” our excitement (word play intended!). We’ve “injected” the Conference with education, inspiration, recognition, fellowship, and fun! The education and activities are tried and “tested”, giving you a real “shot” at making 2 ½ days at our Annual Conference a highly valuable, deeply meaningful experience. Puns and word play aside, this Conference is for you! We encourage you to attend to support your efforts to deliver better senior living and healthcare.

Day 1 opens with inspiration from Missourian Kim Becking about conquering change, boosting resilience, and accelerating success, followed by a screening of “Fast Forward”. Through this creative, poignant documentary, we walk in the shoes of the seniors we serve. Next, we honor the best among us at a recognition and awards luncheon before an afternoon of education followed by social time at day’s end.

Day 2 kicks off with the insightful (often humorous!) observations of iN2L Founder, Jack York, who has traveled the nation “cruising & crooning” with seniors in his karaoke van. Then, after a day of timely topical breakouts, Day 2 culminates with a Chase Park Plaza rooftop reception with views of the St. Louis skyline. When Day 3 dawns, aging services policy and advocacy will be on tap for members at the Public Policy Town Hall and Annual Business Meeting, before the Annual Conference concludes with education deep dives that push us FORWARD.

At our Annual Conference, you’ll share successes, exchange ideas, renew inspiration and build collegial relationships—and you’ll return to your calling better equipped to serve older Missourians. Whether you’re an executive of a multi-site organization, CNA, hospice case manager or affordable housing service coordinator, you’ll find solutions for challenges and discover new ways to improve operations and quality. In short, you’ll move FORWARD. Perhaps it’s “forward” of us, but we want you to attend!

That said, to protect conference participants and boost everyone’s level of comfort, LeadingAge Missouri will require the following:

All attendees, speakers and exhibitors must present proof of full vaccination before attending the conference. For those with a religious or medical reason why they cannot meet the vaccination requirement, a negative COVID-19 test result administered no more than 48 hours prior to arrival must be presented.

All attendees and exhibitors will be required to wear a mask unless they are actively eating or drinking. In education sessions, speakers are required to wear a face covering in the meeting room except when presenting their content and directly addressing the audience.

Further, we are working with the hotel to increase physical distancing in conference meeting spaces and to enhance sanitization. These precautions highlight our commitment to keeping all conference participants safe. We will strictly adhere to CDC Guidance for safe gatherings and the requirements of the City of St. Louis and the hotel in effect at the time of the conference. Finally, we recognize everyone has a role and responsibility to achieve safety and comfort. Beyond the precautions announced, we are asking all participants to pledge to stay home or in their hotel room if they are feeling sick. More information will be sent to registrants on how to comply with these conference precautions and requirements soon.

Thank you for doing your part to keep the LeadingAge Missouri Annual Meeting & Exhibition safe and comfortable for everyone. We look FORWARD to seeing you September 20-22!

Hello LeadingAge Missouri Members & Supporters!“WHAT IF?” – that’s a thought-provoking question asked by people who make a difference. It’s the perfect theme for the 50th Annual Meeting & Exhibition of LeadingAge Missouri!

The “what ifs?” sparking our field’s improvement are many. Let’s start with a timely, easy one: “What if” YOU joined Missouri’s best aging services providers and supporters to celebrate 50 years of association work at its 50th annual meeting? Without question, you’d absorb valuable education, inspiration, fellowship and fun! Please join us September 4-6 at The Chase Park Plaza Royal Sonesta Hotel in St. Louis!

Fifty years ago, young Americans wearing bell bottoms and tie-die shirts protested the Vietnam war. Infant FM radio played the Rolling Stones’ “Honky Tonk Woman”, Zager & Evans’ “In the Year 2525” and The Archies “Sugar Sugar”. Moviegoers took in True Grit, Funny Girl, Easy Rider and The Love Bug. “Broadway Joe” Namath led the NY Jets and AFL to their first Super Bowl victory; the “Miracle Mets” won the World Series and the St. Louis Blues lost the Stanley Cup. In 1969, the world witnessed Woodstock, a final Beatles concert and Neil Armstrong walking on the moon! 1969 was quite a year!

At home in Missouri, our 1969 aging services predecessors were busy organizing and incorporating the Missouri Association of Homes for the Aging (now LeadingAge Missouri) and planning its first membership meeting. A half century later, we still gather to learn, to refresh and to renew commitments to principles our founders gave us to guide us. At 50, LeadingAge Missouri has a rich history of helping its mission-driven members achieve their missions for older Missourians. We are primed for our next half-century of member service. Help us recognize our anniversary and envision our future during 2 1/2 amazing days of learning and celebrating at the 2019 Annual Conference.

Opening Day will feature a unique “painting performance” in a keynote presentation that fuses art, education and inspiration to deliver insight and awaken creativity and innovation. Conference participants then transform into moviegoers in the Chase Park Plaza theater for a poignant film. Next, lunch and recognition are featured at the Annual Awards Luncheon before afternoon educational breakouts. Day 1 concludes with a “technology” General Session and social time with Business Members.

Day 2 kicks off with renowned geriatrician, entrepreneur, author, professor and father of the Eden Alternative and Green House Project - Dr. Bill Thomas - who will make a pit stop during his “ChangingAging” tour. Thereafter, participants choose from 15 education sessions until the major 50th Anniversary Celebration event commences at day’s end on the Chase rooftop.

Day 3 balances advocacy and education. After a State of the Association summary and Business Meeting, LeadingAge Members are invited to participate in a National/State Public Policy Town Hall. Facilitated by Missouri members with help from LeadingAge National, Missouri members will engage in a conversation that informs policy agendas in Washington D.C. and Jefferson City. After policy diving, the What if? Conference will conclude with educational deep dives on timely topics.

At the LeadingAge Missouri Annual Meeting, you’ll share successes, exchange ideas, renew inspiration and build collegial relationships—and after 2 ½ enriching days, you’ll return to your calling better equipped to serve older Missourians. Whether you’re an executive of a multi-site organization, CNA, hospice case manager or affordable housing service coordinator, you’ll find solutions for challenges and discover ways to improve operations and quality. Passionate commitment, personal growth and organizational excellence coalesce at the Annual Meeting. WHAT IF you join us September 4-6 to reenergize your commitment, refresh your knowledge and renew your passion?

9:00 am – 10:30 amTaking It to the Streets, a 45,000 Mile Journey

of InspirationJack York, Co-Founder of iN2L

Let’s face it, 2020 and the first half of 2021, has left us feeling like

we’ve been working our way through a minefield! The realities of COVID have

brought us to our knees, yet we have stayed strong, maintained our poise, and one way or another

we’ll be coming out stronger. But through all this pain, let’s take a break and celebrate some of the reasons we got into the health care arena in the first place.

1:45 pm– 2:45 pm 4 How to Create an Actionable Technology Strategic Plan for Your Community Amber Pardon with Parasol Alliance As a result of the COVID pandemic, many communities faced challenges related to staffing, security,

workflow, communication, resident engagement and care. Business systems and communication technologies were put to the test as employees and residents needed new functionality to connect with families and external healthcare providers, seemingly overnight. Where does that leave us now? 2020 produced one of the industry’s greatest tech booms and now providers are not only prepared to invest in technology, they are seeking a holistic approach to developing their technology strategy to achieve all of their business objectives. In this session, participants will walk through how to create a comprehensive, actionable technology strategic plan and review the must-have components that every senior living community should be considering to maximize the use of technology and drive business outcomes.

3:00 pm–4:00 pm 10 A Healthcare Perspective on the SARS-CoV-2 Vaccine in Long Term CareFacilities Megan Holtmann, DNP RN, Nursing Consultant at United Scripts, LLC Since the mention of its development in 2020, the SARS-CoV-2 (COVID) vaccine has sparked skepticism

worldwide. Did the vaccine come available too soon? How can one be “created” so quickly after the pandemic hit? As health care workers, we are depended on by the general public to guide them in the right direction; however, how can we respond to their questions if we are unsure about the information ourselves? This presentation will discuss the scientific processes behind the creation of the vaccine, as well as current research behind its safety and efficacy. (1 ADM)

Health care organizations face considerable challenges including access to capital, resident health and safety, governmental mandates, personnel shortages, and resident satisfaction among others. Your infrastructure is an asset that can be leveraged to increase revenue, reduce operating costs, change attitudes, and produce positive public relations. By looking at a Total Energy Management approach, this session will outline strategies on how to reduce energy demand and operating costs; produce on-site energy generation; produce energy at the lowest cost; protect your infrastructure investments and promote culture change and excitement with your employees and in your community.

10:45 am–11:45 am 15 COVID Skin Manifestations in Post-Acute Long Term Care Dr. Pamela Scarborough, CWS, VP of Clinical Affairs with American Medical Technologies

The true incidence of COVID-19 skin-related manifestations is not known. The SARS-CoV-2 viral infection causes a wide variety of skin symptoms that may be overlooked, discounted as unimportant, or misdiagnosed, losing the opportunity for early cohorting and treatment. This session’s purpose is to create an awareness of these silent skin manifestations related to COVID-19. It is meaningful to note that the Cleveland Clinic has stated that these skin disruptions may have diagnostic value for SARS-CoV-2 viral infections. (1 PC)


10:45 am–11:45 am 16 A Leaders Approach to Infection Prevention Today and In the Future Lisa Tomson with Pathway Health

10:45 am–11:45 am 17 Refocusing on the PDPM Payment Model Julie Pascoe, Partner & Sherri Robbins Sr. Managing Consultant with BKD

As the industry emerges from the COVID-19 pandemic, many senior living organizations find themselves struggling financially, wondering where they should shift their focus to positively improve their operations. Organizations went into survival mode during the pandemic, and many did not have the available resources to fine tune and monitor their PDPM implementation strategies. This interactive session will help organizations shift their focus back to monitoring and understanding their PDPM performance. This panel works with numerous senior living organizations across the state and will provide clinical, billing and financial perspectives that will identify common missed opportunities and best practices under PDPM. (1 ADM)

10:45 am–11:45 am 18 Dropping the Parents Off at College Adam Edelbrock & Sara Ferguson, Architects with Mackey Mitchell Architects

Higher Education Residential Life and organized Senior Living design both seek to solve the same problem-create spaces where the community and the individual can bloom. The Senior Living Approach strives to “feel like home” while Residential Life emphasizes personal growth, independence and initiating new relationships. Is our attempt to mimic “home” in Senior Living actually hampering personal engagement and fulfillment? An analysis of Residential Hall design can inform strategies to create richer and more inspired environments in Senior Living settings. This session will identify Higher Education Residential Life best practices and adapt solutions to move Senior Living design forward. (1 ADM)

FNP-C, DNS-CT, RAC-MT, Sr. Healthcare Consultant with CLA

As the long-term care industry evaluates and reflects on the lessons learned during 2020, it is important for providers to consider their post-COVID strategy. This session will discuss how to look at operations of your entity differently. This will include thinking about the care delivery mode, staffing, scheduling, and increasing outcomes in a more efficient manner. Utilizing case studies, we will highlight how a couple of organizations analyzed their operations to improve the bottom line and increase morale among their staff. (1 ADM)

2:30 pm–3:30 pm 20 Managing Costs Through Pharmacist-Led Initiative in Chronic Disease State Management Bethany Bramwell, RPh, BCGP, Sr. Director-Customer Experience with Guardian Pharmacy of Missouri

2:30 pm–3:30 pm 21 Optimizing Wound Care Stacey Zerban, LNHA, Administrator with Friendship Village Sunset Hills

Historically, post-acute providers considered wound care patients extremely resource-intensive from both a staffing and supplies perspective, and feared the cost of caring for these patients might negatively impact their bottom lines. With implementation of both the Patient-Driven Payment Model (PDPM) and Patient-Driven Grouping Models (PDGM), wound care has taken on a new importance, positioning providers to lean into the wound care opportunity. ConvaTec Complete (TM) is an innovative program focused on helping post-acute providers meet the opportunities provided by PDPM and PDGM, by leveraging a standardized formulary and clinical pathway, which incorporates Wound Hygiene, as well as mobile digital training tools, to meet the challenges of staff turnover. Participants in this session will learn about the success of a Life Care Community campus in implementing the ConvaTec Complete (TM) program to achieve operational efficiencies and improved clinical and financial outcomes during the COVID-19 pandemic. (1 PC)

2:30 pm–3:30 pm 22 Maintaining Superior Senior Patient Care Amidst a Nursing Shortage Rick Grindrod, CEO & President, Provider Partners Health Plans (PPHP)

3:45 pm–4:45 pm 25 Strategic Growth Through Community Repositioning and Expansion Will Carney, Managing Director, Ziegler & Chad Sneed, CFO, Lutheran Senior Services

A recent Ziegler CFO Hotline (SM) survey showed that 50% of senior living organizations plan to grow through campus expansion projects. In this session, Will Carney, Managing Director with Ziegler, will highlight these key data trends. Chad Sneed, CFO with Lutheran Senior Services, will provide a case study of their Mason Pointe community. Mason Pointe added a significant Independent Living expansion to the existing campus, which had only skilled nursing and assisted living. The project opened in November of 2020. Prior to the expansion, Mason Pointe was feeling the pressures of the changing healthcare environment. The expansion ultimately improves financial stability and brand visibility in the market.

3:45 pm–4:45 pm 26 Purposeful Living in Memory Care - Montessori Approach to Dementia Care Nicole Summers, CMDCP, Administrator and Rebekah Manwarring, CMDCP, Memory Care Program

Director at Friendship Village Sunset Hills Assisted Living & Memory Care

We all have many important roles in caring for our seniors. For those seniors living with dementia, one very important role is to help guide and encourage participation in the things they love to the best of their abilities. Having a team of dedicated care partners that encourage and support residents to make their own decisions while being treated with respect, dignity and equality is vital to any memory care program. The Montessori approach to dementia care is person-centered and empowers residents to be as independent as possible through hands-on learning along with a supportive environment that is intentionally prepared to provide residents the freedom to be independent as much as possible.

This session will unpack the influences of employee knowledge and motivation and the intersecting organizational policies and procedures as they affect policies in senior living communities. Participants will gain a deeper understanding of solving problems related to quality. (1 PC)
