68th Annual Convention August 28-31, 2016 Branson Convention Center Branson, MO

w o h S e d Tra s u t c e p s Pro HEROES of Healthcar e

Invitation to Participate Dear Friends and Partners, Missouri Health Care Association and I would like to invite you to attend our 68th Annual Convention at the Hilton Convention Center in Branson, MO on August 28 - 31, 2016 as we present “Heroes of Healthcare” in our exhibit hall. MHCA is Missouri’s largest long term care trade association representing over 300 licensed proprietary and not-for-profit skilled nursing, assisted living, and residential care facilities. Our convention is widely regarded as the leading long term care trade show in Missouri with consistently high attendance. It also attracts a large number of exhibitors as well as administrators, key decision makers, and prospective buyers. There are many benefits to exhibiting at MHCA’s Annual Convention. There are 4.5 hours of dedicated exhibit time with no overlap of other events, which allow you valuable one-on-one contact with the attendees. Sponsored breaks and giveaways generate traffic in the exhibit hall while an exhibitor directory and listing in the program help promote products and services. Looking to draw the spotlight on your company? MHCA’s sponsorship packages offer various opportunities for exposure before, during and after the convention. The value of being a sponsor at the MHCA convention allows your marketing dollars to stretch further than ever before! Advertising is another great way to get your company noticed. More than 1,000 facility administrators, owners, staff, and decision makers will see the program. Serving as a guide for attendees, placing an advertisement in this program provides another excellent opportunity to market your company. MHCA and I hope you will take advantage of these great opportunities to increase your company’s exposure. Thank you to the following staff of Oak Tree Villas - A StoneBridge Community for agreeing to be our models as part of the front cover: (From left to right) Savanah Snyder, Activity Director; Sarah Sayers, Office Manager; Terry Tate, Dietary Supervisor; Rose Carroll, LPN, Social Service/Admission Director; and Trish Witt, RN. As always, we appreciate your past support and ask for your continued support this coming year! Wishing you the very best for 2016.
