The Long-Term Care Imperative

Members of the Long-Term Care Imperative (LTCI) employ 80,000 professional caregivers across Minnesota, meeting the needs of seniors in all the places they call home – including short-term care, assisted living, memory care and skilled nursing homes. LTCI provides dedicated leadership, advocacy, information and resources on behalf of our members as they provide quality care for seniors. Minnesota is not prepared to accommodate the increasing demand for senior care services resulting from our skyrocketing elderly population. Without significant investment in Minnesota’s long-term care workforce and infrastructure, care will become less accessible and affordable for current and future seniors in need of care. Governor Walz and legislative leaders must address this crisis and provide access to care for all seniors.
