Aging Media Network, Inc. (“Aging Media”) is excited to announce the winners of the 2021 Future Leaders Awards from the senior housing, skilled nursing, home health and hospice industries. This selection of high-performing individuals represents unwavering strength and leadership through some of the most adverse conditions the aging industry has ever seen.

Aging Media recognizes dynamic leaders, ages 40 and under, who are laying the foundation for a bright future in care delivery and aging. They are focused both on improving health outcomes and driving organizational goals with a profound commitment to the wellbeing of the aging population and the industries they serve.

“This group of professionals represents the critical skills of tomorrow’s health care leaders,” said Aging Media Co-Founder George Yedinak. “Each of these leaders has the professional experience to help their organizations deliver better experiences and outcomes.”

With a record number of nominations, this year’s Future Leaders class recognizes 40 individuals across the continuum, all of whom will be featured in upcoming Aging Media publications and invited to Aging Media’s FUTURE Conference in Chicago, IL on September 30, 2021.

The 2021 awards program is sponsored exclusively by PointClickCare Technologies, the leading cloud-based software platform for the senior care market today.
