OHCA The Oregon Caregiver Spring Summer 2024

The Oregon Caregiver SPRING/SUMMER 2024 www.ohca.com 24 2024 Spring Expo We hosted our Spring Expo at the Salem Convention Center on April 11 and 12. With more than 800 provider registrants along with our staff, volunteers, exhibitors, and sponsors, this was the largest spring conference event we’ve ever held! The event was a huge success, filled with great energy and valuable educational sessions. We loved being able to connect with long term care professionals, sponsors, and exhibitors face-to-face. This year we embraced the power of maintaining a positive attitude and helped fuel the passion for rewarding work with our theme, “Ignite Your Potential.” Desi Payne kicked off the two-day event with her keynote presentation, “IGNITE Your Workplace: CPR For Your Attitude,” where she shared strategies on how to handle workplace negativity and techniques to ensure that the long term care community in Oregon remains a positive work environment. Following the keynote, attendees were able to attend a wide variety of educational sessions on quality improvement, DEI, memory care, leadership, and other important topics for long term care professionals. At lunch, attendees got to engage with important service providers, exhibitors, and sponsors at the Trade Show. At the end of the day, attendees were invited to enjoy happy hour and pub trivia with complimentary appetizers and drinks. Attendees woke up refreshed as they returned to a second day of valuable and thought-provoking education sessions.
