Investors in the seniors housing and care space have always seemed to make skilled nursing a second-thought customer. Now, however, the demographics have become so positive, even skilled nursing is enjoying more time in the spotlight — and it should for a long time to come. That's according to Bill Kauffman, a senior principal at the National Investment Center for Seniors Housing & Care, who keeps a close eye on skilled nursing matters. “The optimism is certainly here, for sure,” he told McKnight's Long-Term Care News Executive Editor James M. Berklan at the recent NIC spring conference in San Diego. “Especially over the next 10 years.” The US Department of Housing and Urban Development has traditionally been a strong capital provider for skilled nursing operators, Kauffman noted. But now that most major pandemic concerns have subsided, real estate investment trusts — including public ones — are also becoming more active. With interest rates remaining high, the cost of capital remains the big question mark, Kauffman explained. But, he quickly added, he thinks “it's just a matter of time” before skilled nursing funders take advantage and build more to accommodate the historic crush of baby boomers. “You have a supply and demand situation for private pay seniors housing and have a supply and demand situation for skilled nursing — and they're both positive,” he explained. Listen in to hear more on what Kauffman thinks the key factors are and what moves providers must make to get more capital — and what they must spend at least some of it on to succeed.

Some of the most effective workforce retention strategies aren't necessarily “rocket science,” says Aimee Middleton, vice president of operations for Good Samaritan Society, the nation's largest nonprofit nursing home provider. But they take an intentional approach and investment of time and resources to prove successful. Middleton was one of several providers who spoke with the National Investment Center's Bill Kauffman on the “State of the Nursing Home Industry” during an educational session at the American Health Care Association's 2023 Convention & Expo in Denver While the panel addressed such major topics as inflation, occupancy, reimbursement and managed care, Middleton remains hyper-focused on workforce and the way a lack of nursing staff threatens access in many of the rural communities that Good Sam serves. In this episode hosted by McKnight's Long-Term Care News Senior Editor Kimberly Marselas, Middleton highlights strategies, such as a new mentorship program, with which Good Sam has had recent success. The first 90 days are proving critical, from the frontlines to building leadership. “They have a really intentional effort on workforce,” she says. “And in both our rural and urban facilities, we've seen great success with it. And it's not like the ideas are rocket science, but it's just having that intentional effort on it and really walking alongside our leaders.” Hear how much the new Good Sam approach has improved retention and what other benefits are revealing themselves, as well as why Middleton says reimbursement will remain a critical concern as organizations like her keep the focus on staffing.

Nursing homes and the skilled nursing arena could be in for choppy waters as far as investors are concerned. Yet there are markers that give the sector reason for optimism, especially for stakeholders who play their cards right, says NIC investment expert Bill Kauffman in this podcast moderated by McKnight's Executive Editor James M. Berklan. Follow us on twitter:  @mcknightsltcnwww.mcknights.com

The second-bloodiest riot in the history of New York was touched off by a dispute between two Shakespearean actors. Their supporters started a brawl that killed as many as 30 people and changed the institution of theater in American society. In this week's episode of the Futility Closet podcast we'll tell the story of the Astor Place riot, "one of the strangest episodes in dramatic history." We'll also fertilize a forest and puzzle over some left-handed light bulbs. Intro: In 1968, mathematician Dietrich Braess found that installing a traffic shortcut can actually lengthen the average journey. What key is "Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds" written in?

In this episode we look deeper into the political environment of the first half of the 20th century, from the populist movement to the start of the Cold War, through Bill Kauffman's book, America First! Its History, Culture, and Politics. We look at such figures as Amos Pinchot, Alice Roosevelt Longworth, and Jack Kerouac. We look at the politicians of that era and dip into what it means to be an American.More at www.neofusionist.com

The America First Committee, which opposed U.S. entry into World War II, is universally despised today. Bill Kauffman and I use the AFC as a springboard to discuss nonintervention in general and a whole lot more.

I don't have much to add: to what I said when we last "aired" this conversation, except to express some apologies that we've reached again into the Archive. It's End of Year at Augustana College, which for both students and faculty is like being pressed headfirst through a funnel at Mach 2.3: its painful, but kind of exhilarating at the same time. It also doesn't allow much time for anything else. But I should also add a warm welcome to the many new listeners who are causing the silver spinning platters in Historically Thinking's quaint Amish-built server farm to work full-time. We thank you particularly because your downloads tell us that we're doing something good, and make us want to keep doing more of it. Many thanks. I like this podcast a lot, for three reasons. First, it's with a conversation with a friend, a man I admire for being an academic who does his own thing, in his own unique way. Second, it's about barbecue. Third, it is really a conversation about place, and place is something of a secondary preoccupation at Historically Thinking, right after historical thinking (and historical feeling, but that's another podcast series). Pig is pig, even in Memphis; but Memphis is not North Carolina, and it would be foolish for it to try to be. Here on the Upper Mississippi it's May, which means winter is just about over; people are creeping outside and beginning to put things on the grill; and the redolent smoke is floating through the late evening, a sign and seal of the approach of summer. Sometimes these nice Midwestern folk call what they're doing barbecue; and while they're good people, that "just ain't right." Barbecue is ... well, What Barbecue Is, and particularly what North Carolina Barbecue Is, happens to be the subject of this podcast. Once again, the eminence grease of Southern Sociology and Self-Understanding, John Shelton Reed, joins Al Zambone, this time to talk about North Carolina barbecue, the subject of a book he recently coauthored with Dale Volberg Reed and William McKinney. Holy Smoke: The Big Book of North Carolina Barbecue is not only a history and sociology of North Carolina barbecue; it's not only a set of interviews with some of the foremost practitioners of the art; it's also got recipes. It even has instructions on how to build your own barbecue pit so that you can cook a whole hog. Isn't that something? We don't want to brag, but, we have to say it: this is our most delicious podcast yet. And since Reed will soon be coming out with a book surveying the rest of the Southern barbecue scene, he's sure to be on Historically Thinking again. For Further Reading and Eating John Shelton Reed and Dale Volberg Reed, with William McKinney, Holy Smoke: The Big Book of North Carolina Barbecue  Reed thinks this review of his book by Bill Kauffman got what the book is all about. Allen & Son Bar-B-Q–they don't have a website, but they have a Yelp page full of happy customers. Don't even bother to read it. Just go eat there, OK?

Politicians and the media try to cram Americans into two categories: red and blue. The real America is so much more interesting, says Bill Kauffman, one of my favorite guests.

Bill Kauffman returns to the show to discuss his film Copperhead, directed by Ron Maxwell and starring Peter Fonda, and now out on DVD.
