Jan. 30 Ends CMP Grant Application to Retain Staff

Posted on January 13, 2022 by Jenna Kellerman

Care centers have access to an engagement, retention, and leadership building platform for free through a grant for Align’s Employee Engagement Solution. The final grant window closes on Jan. 30. Download a webinar to learn more about the application process here.

This initiative will fully fund:

• A comprehensive employee engagement process, complete with evidence-based retention resources
• Data collection and analysis through surveys across the entire employee life cycle — new hires, current staff and exiting employees — to help you make informed improvement decisions
• Staff and customer communication tools to boost participation, trust and transparency
• Leadership training for managers and supervisors — because employee engagement is highly influenced by the behaviors and actions of your frontline leaders
• Benchmarking on multiple data points compared to participating facilities in Minnesota.
• The grant is limited to 150 skilled nursing facilities.

LeadingAge Minnesota and Care Providers of Minnesota collaboratively led this two-year initiative through the civil money penalty (CMP) grants to address employee turnover and its impact on the resident experience and quality of life in Minnesota skilled nursing facilities.
