Long-term care administrators to be celebrated in style during 'their' week

The coming work week should be good for long-term care administrators: It's named after them. From Monday through Friday around the country, various observations and celebrations will take place to honor the ultimate multi-taskers. It's going to be National Long Term Care Administrator's Week. Staff, volunteers, residents and their family members are all expected to recognize administrators in various ways. Each March, the American College of Health Care Administrators sponsors the special week of observances. Administrators must undertake rigorous internships and state and national board exams to obtain and retain their licensed status.
