๐Ÿšจ Calling all DONs, ADONs, and Nursing Leaders! ๐Ÿšจ
Granite Peak Healthcare Solutions is proud to invite you to DON Empowered Leadership Training โ€” aka DON Bootcamp โ€” happening August 12โ€“13, 2025 in Skokie, IL!

This two-day intensive isnโ€™t fluff. Itโ€™s real talk, real tools, and real strategies for todayโ€™s long term care nursing leadership teams. Weโ€™re talking systems-thinking, leadership under pressure, and operational excellence tailored specifically to long-term care.
But what truly sets this training apart?

๐ŸŽ™๏ธ Meet Dr. Carmen Taylor โ€”
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 sheโ€™s teaching. This is a rare chance to learn from someone whoโ€™s helped transform facilities from the inside out.
