Taking Action with the Moving Forward Coalition

Jan 18, 2023

The Moving Forward Coalition launched with a clear but ambitious goal: Operationalize the host of recommendations from the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine’s (NASEM) 2022 report on the state of nursing home care.

This week, we welcome Moving Forward leaders Alice Bonner and Isaac Longobardi to talk about the group’s mission and work, and how everyone in long-term care – from residents to caregivers to family members to policymakers to academics and everyone in between – can get involved and make their voices heard.

We’ll take a particular dive into the four main themes of the coalition’s work:

1. Resident-Directed Care: A holistic care model that puts goals, preferences, and priorities first
2. Workforce: A workforce pipeline built with federal, state, and other resources 
3. Financing: Incentives to build small homes and improve direct care wages
4. Accountability: Accountability for all parts of the eldercare system, including both providers and government actors
