The 2021 LeadingAge Ohio Leadership Summit will create a forum for forward-thinking dialogue on successfully delivering aging services today and in the post-pandemic years ahead. Nearly every area of the aging services continuum will be touched in the day’s discussion, from services into the community (meals on wheels, adult day, home health) and long-term care settings, to hospice and affordable housing. Every one of these services and settings has margins pinched by an ongoing constriction of payment sources and reimbursement challenges. The day’s agenda will bring research results, case studies and a time of ‘radical introspection’ leading to a blueprint for vision casting for how mission-driven organizations can prepare for the future’s knowns and unknowns.
