Environments for Aging - Winter 2017 - 6

SHOW TALK

Coming soon
The EFA Expo & Conference will kick off on Feb. 26, offering attendees a forum to share
new ideas and help shape what's next
By Kevin Gaffney
Figuring out how to balance the wants and
needs of the baby boomer generation can be
tricky, especially when it comes to where they
live. The boomers are seeking environments
that answer their desires for active lifestyles, in
particular, but that also support any physical
limitations and/or disabilities they might have.
That's where the 2017 Environments for
Aging Expo & Conference comes in, offering the industry the resources necessary to
understand these nuances in order to best
plan, design, and build senior living spaces that
boomers, and future generations, want.
During this year's EFA Expo, being held
Feb. 26-March 1 at the Mandalay Bay
Convention Center in Las Vegas, you'll have
the opportunity to learn from experts and
network with peers in order to share ideas
and brainstorm new innovations. You'll help
shape the next wave of strategies for creating
functional and enjoyable living environments
for all seniors.
We're also pleased to be colocating
EFA Expo with the Medtrade Spring show.
Medtrade Spring is focused exclusively on the
home medical equipment (HME) market and
features educational, networking, and advocacy opportunities alongside the largest selection
of HME products under one roof. The show will
bring together thousands of HME providers,

home healthcare professionals, and manufacturers of home healthcare products and
technology-and you're free to check it out; an
EFA badge gains you complimentary access
to the Medtrade Spring show floor. (For more
details on show crossover opportunities, see
"Common Sense" on page 30.)

The EFA Expo offers resources
to help shape living spaces for
boomers and future generations.
As the overall continuum of care evolves,
bringing these two events together allows
attendees to network with designers as well
as providers and clinical professionals, all
focused on developing solutions in the field of
personal healthcare.
I look forward to seeing you in Las Vegas. EFA
