Alice Hedt
At a meeting last week in Washington, D.C., the Eldercare Workforce Alliance we told you about in December named its new project director: Alice Hedt, former executive director of NCCNHR: The National Consumer Voice for Quality Long-Term Care.
“EWA’s goal is to develop practical solutions that will build a caring and competent workforce providing high-quality, culturally sensitive, person-directed, and family-focused care for America’s elders,” said Hedt in the alliance’s first press release.
“We are pleased that EWA has hired such a strong and experienced leader as Alice Hedt, and eager to begin working with Alice and EWA’s other members to improve elder care services,” says DCA Executive Director Leonila Vega, a founding member of the EWA.
