It reports on the events that affect the way care is delivered across the entire long-term care spectrum, ranging from the lower acuity assisted living setting, to the high acuity skilled nursing setting. Included also is coverage of care in Continuing Care Retirement Communities, Alzheimer's and Special Care Facilities, Post Acute Care Centers, and Hospital based long-term care units. The magazine will mark its 30th anniversary in April 2010. McKnight's Assisted Living presents articles and departments that offer assisted living managers strategies to improve operations, based on the regulatory and business changes occurring in the marketplace. Departments include: Stabilizing ADLs (assisting residents), Alzheimer's Outreach (Alzheimer's and dementia program management), Design Decisions (solving facility design problems), Finance Talk (access to capital and managing the P&L), Looking at the Law (legal issues and contracts), Products You Need (product news) and Resident Safety (monitoring residents -personal emergency response). Each department discusses an aspect of the assisted living operation. Features discuss news, trends, resident activity programs, sales and marketing issues -- and industry events.
