Lake Elmo, MN-based Pathway Health has developed a new workforce initiative meant to address the need to fill leadership roles in senior living and skilled nursing.
The profession “continues to face unprecedented leadership challenges due to a number of factors, including the growing needs of an aging population and workforce pressures resulting from leaders reaching retirement age and turnover,” Pathway Health CEO Peter B. Schuna said in a statement.
The consulting company now is offering what it calls Pathway Health Emerging Leader Solutions, which includes a suite of services such as interim leaders who are supported by Pathway Health’s resources, mentorship and guidance to individuals starting a career in senior living community or nursing home administration.
Among the services offered under the new program is PathPass mentoring and licensure examination preparation to aid new-to-career professionals and undergraduate and graduate candidates.
The CareerPrep offering provides career search mentorship, preparation, professional development and career placement for long-term care leaders.
Finally, PathPro connects Pathway Health’s professionals with current leaders who are seeking mentorship and professional career development support.
“We aim to not only support new-to-career leaders as they start their career journey but also provide ongoing mentorship for existing leaders to achieve a successful, long-standing career,” Schuna said.
