The deadline to enter the McKnight’s Excellence in Technology Awards is less than a week away — Friday, June 23.
Finalists in each category will be announced Aug. 23, with a virtual summit and awards ceremony to follow Sept. 20. An in-person celebration will take place Nov. 6 in Chicago.
This annual showcase is a free opportunity for providers to demonstrate leadership and outside-the-box thinking when it comes to today’s tech. Submissions don’t have to involve complicated or costly devices or programs. The national, independent panel of judges is interested in clever approaches that lead to smarter workflows and better quality of life.
No-cost entries are being accepted through June 23 in four categories — Quality, Innovator of the Year, KISS (Keep It Super Simple), Building Bridges and Tech Partner of the Year — within three tracks: home care, senior living and skilled nursing. McKnight’s will recognize winners for technology uses that improve efficiency, demonstrate innovative thinking or harness new tools to benefit residents and staff members.
Also back again is the Technology Partner of the Year award, an all-division award covering senior living, skilled nursing and home care.
See this site for more details on categories and rules. Vendors are eligible to enter only the Tech Partner of the Year category.
The Sept. 20 virtual McKnight’s Technology Summit will feature educational webinars. A full agenda will be announced at a later date.
Winners will be recognized across McKnight’s Home Care, McKnight’s Senior Living and McKnight’s Long-Term Care News and all their social and traditional media platforms.
