🚨 Calling all DONs, ADONs, and Nursing Leaders! 🚨Granite Peak Healthcare Solutions is proud to invite you to DON Empowered Leadership Training — aka DON Bootcamp — happening August 12–13, 2025 in Skokie, IL!
This two-day intensive isn’t fluff. It’s real talk, real tools, and real strategies for today’s long term care nursing leadership teams. We’re talking systems-thinking, leadership under pressure, and operational excellence tailored specifically to long-term care.
But what truly sets this training apart?
🎙️ Meet Dr. Carmen Taylor —
With decades of experience spanning Director of Nursing, Regional Nurse Consultant, Surveyor, Chief Nursing Officer, and Nursing School Faculty, Dr. Taylor has seen it all. Her ability to bridge clinical leadership with regulatory insight is unmatched. If you're serious about leveling up as a nurse leader, you want to be in the room when she’s teaching. This is a rare chance to learn from someone who’s helped transform facilities from the inside out.
Guest facilitators include national speaker, former surveyor and consultant Kaile Hilliard, BA, MSW, LCSW and Susan M. Davis, RN — both respected regulatory experts with deep roots in long-term care.
