The post-acute care industry is at a critical juncture where changing policies, technologies, and employee conditions are forcing us to think differently—and those that adapt are the forefront of growth.

The 2023 Activated Insights Growth Summit is a 2-day virtual conference designed to bring together some of the top industry experts and leaders from the care continuum to share their knowledge, experience, advice, and expertise.

During the conference, attendees will have the opportunity to participate in a live Q+A with the presenters. You’ll also receive session recordings and slides after the conference so you can review them with your team.

The demand for post-acute services is higher than ever and the industry is poised for progress — which is why we’re bringing back our annual Growth Summit.

Topics will include:

  • How to foster a culture of diversity, equity, and inclusion
  • Successful marketing tactics for 2023
  • The truth about advocacy across the care continuum
  • How to keep the training going
  • What you need to do to recruit more employees

  • How to utilize awards & certifications
