This year's NZACA annual conference and Trade Exhibition will be held at the TSB Arena, Shed 6 in Wellington over two days, Tuesday 17 and Wednesday 18 November.
The NZACA conference theme is Aged Care in a Pandemic World with a focus on COVID-19 offering members and the wider sector the chance to regroup, debrief, and share learnings on insights during the COVID-19 pandemic.
This year’s two-day conference will explore what that future may look like. Keynote speakers will discuss how New Zealand eliminated COVID-19, what kind of leadership was needed and what the future economy may look like. The workshop sessions on Day 1 and Day 2 will explore what was learned, how the sector adapted, and how to be best prepared to respond to any outbreaks. The annual awards will be held on the evening of the first day.
Master of Ceremonies is Rawdon Christie and keynote speakers include Professor Michael Baker, Shamubeel Eaqub and Dr Julie Gerrard, the Prime Minister’s Chief Science Advisor.
