The theme of the 2021 Conference is Building Bridges – Bâtir des ponts.
The rising sun in the conference logo symbolizes the change happening in our profession, while the outstretched hands represent the need for connection, communication, and action. Bridges need to be built – across generations, across issues, across race and gender – so that we can move forward as a supportive, diverse, and inclusive professional community.
The DC National Conference 2021 will be a 100% virtual, multi-day event in light of uncertainty in the timing of vaccine distribution and the possibility that public health measures may still need to be in place in May 2021. This year’s event will bring the DC community together for networking, learning, and meetings using an innovative virtual event platform.
We are excited to create unique opportunities for engagement and interaction among attendees, as well as a central place to experience conference programming. Live sessions will take place weekly on Wednesdays between 12:00pm and 3:00pm EST from May 5 to June 30, 2021. A full schedule, including additional events and activities, will be announced in early 2021.
Our theme is Facing the Challenges: Long Term Care’s Resilience Through a Pandemic. This Virtual Conference will offer a full day of insightful speaker presentations, as well as a chance for sponsors and exhibitors to connect with the nursing home sector of New Brunswick.
