Working in America’s long term care facilities is both meaningful and deeply rewarding, with caregivers across the country delivering compassionate, person-centered care every day. As our population ages and the demand for long term care continues to grow, the need for a strong and resilient workforce has never been more critical. Providers are committed to recruitment and retention efforts, but they need support. Strengthening the long term care workforce to meet future needs requires policymakers to take strategic, collaborative action through a multi-pronged approach.
Caregivers for Tomorrow is a nationwide effort to drive policy change to strengthen and expand the long term care workforce through innovative, sustainable solutions. These solutions will attract new caregivers, support current staff, and ensure every older adult and individual with disabilities has access to the high-quality care they deserve for years to come.
This is a moment for policymakers, regulatory agencies, and stakeholders at every level to come together and champion meaningful, supportive solutions.
