Conner Greenspan Chosen as a Future Long Term and Post-Acute Care Leader

Austin, Texas – The Texas Health Care Association (THCA) announced today that Conner Greenspan has been chosen by the American Health Care Association and the National Center for Assisted Living (AHCA/NCAL) as a future leader in long term and post-acute care. Conner Greenspan will join the Association’s Future Leaders program, a year-long program that offers training and guidance for long term and post-acute care professionals.

“AHCA/NCAL is dedicated to offering skilled nursing professionals who are providing high quality care the opportunity to enhance their leadership skills,” said Mark Parkinson, President & CEO of AHCA/NCAL. “We look forward to seeing Conner and the entire Future Leaders class apply these newly-acquired skills to improve the well-being of individuals within long term and post-acute care.”

“As the long term care sector continues to evolve and balance the needs and expectations of the residents and families being served, it is critical that future leaders are identified and given the support and training for success. Conner is an example for long term care professionals in demonstrating the necessary commitment to our industry,” said Kevin Warren, President & CEO of THCA. “We are privileged to have Conner represent Texas in the AHCA Future Leaders Program and know he will be an asset to the program”.

Conner began his career in long term care in 2013 with HMG Healthcare. He since has been tasked with leading multiple facilities out of financial difficulties as well as initiating innovative specialty programming for HMG. His early successes led to his most recent placement at HMG’s flagship facility in The Woodlands. Conner was also elected by his peers to serve as Region 7 Chair for the THCA Board of Directors.

Since 2004, AHCA/NCAL has hosted long term and post-acute care professionals in the Future Leaders program. Selected participants both demonstrate leadership potential and represent the interests of both state and national long term care providers. The program covers the latest theories and practical applications in quality management, customer satisfaction, and leadership. The year-long program kicks off with a two-day symposium, “Future Leaders of Long Term Care in America,” held each year in Washington, D.C. This year’s symposium will take place September 13 – 15, 2017.
