Our History
NYALTCA was founded in 1968 when a small
group of nursing home administrators completed
a pivotal senior-care course at Cornell University
while preparing for licensure.
Upon graduating, they identified two critical but
missing components in the realm of elder care:
1. Greater fellowship among peers in the industry
2. An efficient path to continuing-education credits
and license renewal
Joining together as friends and fellows, they created the New York Association of Long Term Care Administrators which has promoted excellence in long-term elder care for more than 50 years.
