The fields of finalists for the 2022 McKnight’s Excellence in Technology Awards were released Monday morning by event organizers.
A variety of providers, ranging from small operators to large chains, will take home Gold, Silver and Bronze medals in four categories in each of the three divisions.
An esteemed group of 25 long-term care stakeholders judged hundreds of nominations, assessing nominations gathered this spring for their overall value in improving resident care and services.
“Each year, we are excited to see, recognize and share examples of how technology is being used in big and small ways to improve the lives of older adults and those who care for them,” McKnight’s Editorial Director John O’Connor said.
Award winners will be announced and celebrated Oct. 4 at the second annual McKnight’s Tech Awards + Summit, an online event offering one continuing education credit. Find more details about the three webinars offered during the event here. The awards ceremony and accompanying educational sessions are free and open to everyone, but registration is required here.
Winners also will be feted at an in-person event Oct. 17 in Denver. For more information and to register, click here.
