The Search for PALTC Utopia: Annual Report From AMDA

Imagine a world where all patients, residents, and families in post-acute and long-term care (PALTC) settings receive seamless care and service, perfectly responsive to their needs and goals. A world where physicians and advance practice clinicians work side by side with all the other disciplines. A world where nursing assistants are front and center in care meetings. A world where meaningful care outcomes are rewarded. A world where unavoidable, unfavorable outcomes don’t bring finger-pointing and shame, but are seen as opportunities for learning and improvement.
