Working in long-term care isn’t always the path people expect for themselves, but it’s a career we have found deep meaning and purpose in.

Some of our students start early, at 21.

Many have entire careers in other industries before they find us. We’re here for all of them.

So if you’ve been thinking about making a change, hear us when we say this:

✨You deserve to have a meaningful career.✨

Longtree is here when you’re ready to take that next step.

New data continues to confirm what many long-term care professionals already know: mental health is part of nearly every resident’s experience.

Between 65% and 90% of nursing home residents live with a mental health disorder.

1 in 5 long-stay residents has a diagnosis like bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, or another psychotic disorder.

Education and training in this space matter more than ever. That’s why we’re building practical learning CEs around this reality.

Master the Art of Calm | May 28, we are hosting a seminar for professionals navigating behavioral challenges in long-term care environments.

This is what it looks like when you invest in your people—and it’s easier than you think.

Today, we partnered with CentraState Medical Center to deliver a customized seminar for their social work team—bringing people together for meaningful learning, conversation, and connection (with lunch and a little St. Patrick’s Day spirit mixed in 🍀).

A big thank you to Olender and Ocean Health for supporting this opportunity and making it possible. This session was delivered live via Zoom and tailored specifically to the realities of their work.

If you’ve been thinking about doing something like this for your team, we’d love to help you make it happen.

Happy Long-Term Care Administrators Week. We recognize the people who keep LTC communities running with integrity and compassion.

We’ve had the privilege of getting to know many of you in our 100-hour LNHA course throughout the years. Watching our students step into leadership roles and continue growing in the field has been one of the most rewarding parts of our work. We’re so proud of you. The work you do matters, and we’re grateful to stay connected.

We’d love to hear how things are going. Leave us a ❤️ and keep an eye on our newsletter for our Spring/Summer seminar schedule.

Resistance from older adults is not a hurdle for care teams; it’s a signal.
Responding well takes judgment.

Tomorrow we’re hosting a peer-based discussion with long-term care professionals who navigate these moments every day. We hope you’ll join us.

March 12 | 1:00–3:00 p.m. (Eastern Time)
