For providers, it’s about responsible decision-making.
For families, it’s about knowing when professional guidance is necessary.

Understanding that gap matters.

Providers know dementia care requires more nuance than Dr. Google can offer.

If you’re a family member navigating questions for a loved one — or a practitioner referring a family — we offer structured, practical education to help bridge that gap.

“We grew up in a culture where medication was normalized...”

Many of us did. And that history shapes how elders experience pain medication today.

The next Longtree leadership (virtual) seminar is this Thursday, February 12, from 1:00–3:00 p.m. ET.

Join us for "Hidden Challenges Facing Seniors: Opioids & Pain Medication", a continuing education session with practical guidance, designed for long-term care professionals supporting seniors through complex care decisions.

Ageism isn’t always obvious.

Most of the time, it shows up in small ways: in our language, habits, and assumptions we don’t even realize we’re making.

We’ve just released a new on-demand course that digs deeper into how ageism affects care delivery and decision-making.

If this is part of your day-to-day, the course is available here:

It’s National Activity Professionals Week.🎉

Thank you to the Community Coordinators and Activity Directors who show up every day with intention and care. We see you.

Laurie shares the four C’s that reflect your work and inspire us to live by the practices that shape daily life in care communities.

Some conversations work best when everyone is in the room.

Early this month, Longtree was invited to New Jersey to lead an in-person professional seminar, Responding to Elders’ Challenging Resistance. More than 45 long-term health care professionals attended, committed to discussing why trauma-informed care in skilled nursing and long-term care matters.

Special thanks to our presenter, Quanette Vasser, NJSW, Director of Social Work, for leading this work.

With Longtree seminars, we bring practical frameworks. We leave room for thoughtful questions and take time to work through the regulatory and real-world challenges faced by professionals working in long-term care.

For this kind of work, we are always grateful. Thank you to Atlas Health Care for hosting and for the thoughtful partnership.

Congratulations to our course graduates who recently earned their Certified Assisted Living Administrator certification in December 2025!

We were delighted by this group and their commitment to leadership in assisted living and residential care. Thoughtful, engaged, and ready to advocate for elders and their families — it was a pleasure to work alongside you.

We’re thrilled to welcome you into this next chapter and excited to see what’s ahead for this group.
