The Caregiving Crisis – Creating Opportunities for Entrepreneurs
We have a caregiver crisis in the U.S. And it’s complex! By the year 2026, the Caregiving Shortage could mean 7.8 million unfilled jobs, presenting one of the biggest industry-wide challenges for senior living, home health, state government, corporations, older people and families. As an economic-driver in the industry, this also presents enormous opportunity for innovation! Inventiveness and technology are a must.
In this session, you’ll:
• Hear the very real challenges faced by the industry across the nation
• Learn about some new businesses and technologies working to solve these issues
• Understand some of the wins and mis-steps both businesses and entrepreneurs had along the way
