NAHC Annual Meeting and Home Care & Hospice Exposition 2010

The 2010 National Association for Home Care & Hospice 29th Annual Meeting & Exposition will be held in Dallas, TX. We can think of nowhere that is a better setting. It is a great honor and privilege to invite you and the home care and hospice community to join us at this gathering on October 2-6, 2010.

The theme for this year is “Home Care & Hospice: Pioneers in the New Health Care Frontier.” This reflects the opportunities for home care and hospice to reshape the healthcare system as it prepares to receive the 78 million strong baby boom generation.

The great gift of all the advances in medicine and technology we have accomplished is that humans can now live longer than ever, but we have seen along with this a ballooning of chronic illness. Home care is the only answer to serving the greater needs of these individuals to allow them to remain active and independent in their own homes and communities, which is what the vast majority of Americans prefer instead of institutional care.
