Join Arizona senior living and long-term care leaders for a high-impact day of insight, guidance, and real-world strategies—led by experts in the issues shaping our work and communities across the state.

HR and Finance don’t always see the world the same way. That’s kind of the point.

We’re bringing both sides of the organization together for a day focused on workforce, culture, financial realities and the decisions leaders are making about the future.

We’ll kick off the morning with Govig for a conversation about your employer brand, Glassdoor, organizational culture and what all of it may actually be costing you when it comes to recruitment and retention.

Then we’re putting the “healthy tension” between HR and Finance on the table.

Leaders from Sun Health, Beatitudes and Royal Oaks will join a candid roundtable discussion facilitated by Janice Maloney of Sawgrass about how HR and Finance can work together when priorities, budgets and workforce realities collide.

After lunch, Janice will zoom out and bring us the national perspective on strategic planning — what is shifting, what organizations should be watching and how leaders may need to rethink programs and services through both an employee and operator lens.

And because apparently we couldn’t let you leave without talking about compliance…

Laura Simon, with Centered People Solutions, will close the day with an important update on contractor law with. Her presentation - "You're Already Exposed”: Compliance Blind Spots Senior Living Can't Afford in 2026 is laser focused on what you need to know now!

This is designed for CEOs, CFOs, HR leaders, operators and anyone involved in workforce or strategic planning.

Why Attend? You’ll walk away with:

Actionable strategies you can use immediately
Clarity on expectations and operational risk areas
Practical insights
Peer learning and connection with leaders across the continuum

Phoenix, AZ

Members: $275.00 paying by check
Members: $283.25 paying online

Non-Member: $375.00 paying by check
Non-Member: $386.25 paying online

DEMENTIA, INNOVATION + WHAT’S COMING NEXT IN HEALTHCARE

On October 15, we’ll gather at Hospice of the Valley for a day that moves from dementia care and innovative programming to some of the biggest healthcare policy and funding conversations happening right now.

We’ll begin with dementia education led by Hospice of the Valley, followed by a look at innovation happening inside our own member organizations.

Oakwood will share its Joy Theory and how it has been incorporated into its adult day programming — giving attendees practical ideas for creating more meaningful engagement and experiences.

We’ll also hear the story behind Geri-Gadget: why it was created, the need it was designed to solve and how these tools may be used within senior living and care settings.

Then, after lunch, we’re changing gears.

Our afternoon will be dedicated to a conversation with AHCCCS and the Governor’s Office about HR 1, rural health grants and what organizations across Arizona should be paying attention to.

We’ll look beyond the headlines and talk about the potential implications for:

Workforce and HR
Operations
Residents and patients
Rural healthcare
Senior living and long-term care
Arizona’s broader healthcare infrastructure

If you’ve been hearing about these changes but wondering, “Okay, but what does this actually mean for us?” — that’s the conversation we want to have.

Why Attend? You’ll walk away with:

Actionable strategies you can use immediately
Clarity on expectations and operational risk areas
Practical insights
Peer learning and connection with leaders across the continuum
