Windel presents a nursing-based strategy for meeting the needs of an aging population.
Speaker:
Linnea Windel, R.N., M.S.N., president/CEO, Visiting Nurse Association of Fox Valley
Panel description:
Today, well before the Boomer pig-in-the-python has hit, a little more than 12.7 percent of Americans are over of 65 and the health care system is struggling to care for them. The problem is finding people with the high- and low-level skills needed to deliver care. This session will focus on what those in medicine, nursing, rehabilitation and in-home care are doing to maximize resources for increasingly long-lived seniors and what they are doing to plan for the future.
