NHPCO 2022 Conference Offers Renewal and Reinvigoration for Hospice and Palliative Care Leaders
2022 Leadership and Advocacy Conference will be NHPCO’s First In-Person Conference Since 2019
(Alexandria, Va) – The National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization’s Leadership and Advocacy Conference will be the premier professional event in 2022 with content curated specifically for leaders and aspiring leaders working to advance hospice and palliative care. To address the critical needs of the field, LAC22 will safely bring together professionals to experience a unique blend of keynotes, educational sessions, networking opportunities, exhibits, and events not to be missed. The event will be held at the Gaylord National Harbor Resort and Convention Center in National Harbor, Maryland on March 7 – 9, 2021.
Educational Sessions that Leaders Need Today and for the Future
LAC22 will offer peer-to-peer intermediate and advanced educational sessions that are built around these four topic areas:
-
-
- Managing the Health Care of Individuals Living with Serious Illness
- Transforming the Health Care Delivery System
- Navigating a Post-Pandemic World
- Building Interdisciplinary Team Leadership
-
“There’s nothing like a face-to-face conference to renew your sense of mission, fuel your creativity, and inspire your vision for the future. For the first time since 2019, hospice and palliative care leaders will gather in-person to explore new possibilities, share innovations, and set the direction for the next 40 years of person- and family-centered care,” said NHPCO President and CEO Edo Banach. “This is what NHPCO’s 2022 Leadership and Advocacy Conference is all about.”
