Is there a future of Long-term Care in Europe? What can we learn from each other…
The long term care in Europe is undergoing a lot of changes facing key coming challenges.
The Prague 2018 congress is specific in more ways. It´s the first European Ageing Network (former E.D.E. and EAHSA) congress and it´s opening the crucial topics. Is there a future of long term care in Europe and if yes, what is this future going to be.
We are touching the role of the European Commission and the member states in social policies. We are opening the hot topic concerning the workforce in long term care – the shortage, qualifications, workers/caregivers migration. We will talk seriously about how the coming increase of people with dementia will affect the long term care in Europe. And we will present good practices examples from various states.
Finally we will also present the European Ageing Network VISION for 2030.
A „must“ part of the congress are also two social events. One on a ship with great food, jazz music and unforgettable views of great Prague and the other in Old City Church with superb Czech Classical music.
Come to Prague in 2018 and be part of this unique event.

Workshop on the future of long-term care
What is coming our way? What does the future hold for the providers of care and services for the aged? Which trends are currently in evidence?
These are the topics that we wish to discuss with you at the LTC 2030 Workshop. This is an opportunity for you to participate, add your voice to the discussion and actively shape the future of our sector.
