Published in 2009, this paper was commissioned by the American Association of Homes and Services for the Aging, and written by Mary F. Harahan and Robyn I. Stone, Institute for the Future of Aging Services.

The goal of this paper is to analyze the gerontological workforce literature, as well as initiatives launched by professional associations and providers, to determine progress in defining the competencies needed by the licensed long-term care workforce.
