Avamere Living President Carl Tabor was honored this week as an inaugural winner of the McKnight's Pinnacle Award. These awards recognized industry veterans for exemplary service and leadership in Long Term Care. Tabor will receive the "Agent of Change" award.
Winners were named in one of seven categories: Agent of Change, Industry Ally, Inspiration, Setting the Standard, Thought Leader, Unsung Hero, and Business Partner. The 30 veterans awarded have driven change, set new standards, and provided inspirational leadership. The honorees are veteran long-term care operators, caregivers, and affiliated professionals who have had lengthy careers - at least 20 years - serving at the top levels of skilled nursing, home care, and senior living. The program is a joint effort of McKnight's Long-Term Care News and sister media brands McKnight's Senior Living and McKnight's Home Care.
"It is an honor to be chosen along with the other awardees as someone who continues to strive for quality care and outcomes for those we serve," says Tabor. "I have spent my career dedicated to learning, growing, and advocating for process improvement and innovation around how we care for those in need of Long Term Care and Skilled Nursing Services. This award just highlights the fact that many of us are pushing for the same thing."
"Our teams are hardworking, dedicated individuals committed to enhancing the lives of our patients. Under Carl's leadership we continue to move the needle of setting the stage in industry-leading practices," says VP of Operations Roxanne Stennett. "He has been an inspirational leader to serve with, always advocating for better outcomes through how we care for those in need."

The American Institute for Dental Public Health (AIDPH) has released its 2022 Impact Report highlighting achievements in oral health equity, affirming strategic priorities, and introducing a roadmap for the upcoming year.
"When I reflect on what we've accomplished in 2022, one word resonates above all: gratitude," said Executive Director Dr. Annaliese Cothron. "Gratitude to our leadership, funders, collaborators, and team. We've experienced the biggest growth we've ever had this past year, extending our impact beyond what we thought possible."
In 2022, AIDPH elevated oral health equity in three areas of focus: LGBTQIA+ people, rural health, and veterans. The organization announced a planned focus expansion for people with disabilities.
During 2022 advocacy efforts, Dr. Cothron joined policy experts and over 200 participants during the Oral Health Progress and Equity Network (OPEN) mid-year meeting to discuss critical issues facing dental public health, including Medicare and oral health access for priority populations. Dr. Cothron was also invited to a private roundtable conversation with members of congress to share AIDPH's research detailing oral health disparities impacting America's veterans.
Furthering a commitment to prepare future oral health leaders to support the needs of underserved communities, AIDPH began 2022 by hosting its annual conference, "Transforming Veteran Oral Health," followed by the initiation of its rural oral health certificate program. AIDPH ended the year by launching its inaugural Dental Public Health Leadership Academy, a program aimed at capacity-building of future oral health leaders. AIDPH awarded 350 continuing education units (CEUs), provided more than 400 hours of education to oral health professionals, and drew more than 1,000 attendees to its workshops, webinars and virtual events.
AIDPH advanced innovation through published research with strategic recommendations on veteran oral health, COVID-19's impact on the dental public health workforce, and improving the oral health of rural veterans. By pairing research with compelling data visualization, AIDPH directly influenced policy and shaped national oral health discourse for veterans, LGBTQIA+ people, and rural communities.
AIDPH achieved success this year through funding from CareQuest Institute for Oral Health, the Barstool Difference, Delta Dental Foundation of Iowa, and the National Network for Oral Health Access (NNOHA).

COLTON, Calif. - December 15, 2022 - (Newswire.com)
From the boxing ring to the outer reaches of the cosmos, Chino Valley Ranchers (CVR) has taken its eggs and its customers on a wild ride over the past year, going viral in a series of wildly successfully digital ads that have captured the attention of millions.
CEO Chris Nichols explains why the company is prioritizing entertaining content. "I believe all people have a desire to be creative in one form or another. For me, taking a break from the normal duties of running the farm in order to think outside the box and express some creativity is essential. With so many new platforms to display content, the possibilities are endless. This opportunity gets me excited as we continue to push the barriers of what people expect from an egg brand."
The ad "Special Delivery" took highest honors during the 2022 MUSE Creative Awards. Inspired by the recent gender-reveal party craze, it is a comedic portrayal of a delivery driver lured by a "Come on in!" sign and a table full of delicious treats. He enters just as the party reaches its climax and has a comical "wanna get away" moment. (Link)
Country star Nate Kenyon takes center stage in "Chicken Scratch." In this music video-format ad, he portrays a lovelorn rancher jilted by his favorite chicken, who has flown the coop for Chino Valley. A string of puns delivered in convincing country heartbreak style culminate in the tagline, "The Grass Is Greener at Chino Valley." (Link)
CVR also released a unique and widely viewed animation for Comet Eggs, whose "intergalactic orange yolks" are explained with an amusing backstory about Cold War-era chickens in space. (Link)
"We love what we do here at Chino and can't wait to share that message with our customers," Nichols says. "This past year, we took a different approach to advertising in order to bring our audience something new. Eggs are a food that is so versatile and fun to cook with, we wanted to bring out some of that humor and celebrate a new way to look at eggs. We see our content as leading the industry forward and can't wait to see what we do in 2023."

Gemini Motor Company, Chart Industries, and Ballard Power Systems entered into an agreement to collaborate on the development of a zero-emission fuel-cell Class 8 autonomous vehicle that will be able to cover 1,000 miles in one fueling, dramatically reducing operating costs for the clean, long-haul transportation industry.
According to Alex Rafiee, Gemini's CEO, "Both Ballard and Chart are the industry leaders in their sectors, and we are confident our integrated solution will be a significant step forward for the industry."
This range breakthrough is possible due to the high energy density of liquified hydrogen and the ability to store it on-board Gemini's specially designed trucks. Liquid hydrogen has higher energy density than its gaseous form typically compressed at 350 and 700. Cryogenic tanks that store liquid hydrogen can operate at atmospheric pressure, which makes them inherently safer for transport and more efficient in achieving longer driving ranges while maintaining an optimal gross vehicle weight.
The benefits of fueling liquid hydrogen from a refueling station to a liquid hydrogen on-board tank include removing prohibitive cost burdens and allowing ultra-fast refueling times on parity with diesel. On-board storage tanks streamline the dispensing process by eliminating the need for compression and, as a result, remove prohibitive capital and operational costs associated with compressors.
In addition to the significant reduction in carbon emissions from the use of liquid hydrogen and the unique design, Gemini plans to, over time, introduce an autonomous model of the same vehicle with increased space for additional fuel and additional efficiency from AI-directed operations that will extend the range up to 1,400 miles.
Along with Gemini Motor's recent agreement with a green hydrogen provider for low-cost liquid hydrogen, the development of this platform is poised to move deliberately toward a low-cost, efficient goods-movement future. Gemini will provide customers with a "Transportation-as-a-Service" model, including a plan for first rollout of test vehicles and demonstration fleets in 2023. After successful trials, the company intends to work on the launch of Gemini Motor's commercial service with hundreds of vehicles by 2025.
Chart Industries, Inc. is a leading independent global manufacturer of highly engineered equipment servicing multiple applications in the Energy and Industrial Gas markets. Ballard Power Systems delivers fuel cell power for a sustainable future of the planet. Ballard zero-emission PEM fuel cells are enabling electrification of mobility, including buses, commercial trucks, trains, marine vessels, and stationary power generation.
In the first phase of the collaboration, Gemini will integrate Chart's liquid fuel on-board storage systems and Ballard's advanced FCmoveTM fuel cell in a class 8 vehicle to validate a multi-component integration system. Gemini intends to demonstrate a vehicle with an unprecedented zero-emission range suited for long-haul logistics in countries such as the U.S., Canada, and Australia. At commercial scale, Gemini seeks to operate thousands of such vehicles in a hub-to-hub model across multiple cities and provide transportation-as-a-service business to shippers and carriers.
Ballard fuel cells currently power approximately 3,500 buses and trucks, providing zero-emission mobility solutions in nearly a dozen countries around the world with more than 100 million combined zero-emission kilometers driven. There is no other fuel-cell system provider with more heavy-duty on-the-road miles than Ballard, proving the extraordinary maturity and durability of their solution.
"We are excited about this agreement, as it represents extensive consideration and collaboration regarding partners. To accelerate decarbonization of the transportation sector, driving range is key. With longer ranges, the number of fuel stations needed drops exponentially while utilization of every unit rises, hence accelerating the adoption of zero emission transport. We achieve this long driving range with Ballard's powerful fuel cells combined with the unique liquid hydrogen tank storage from Chart," said Rafiee.
Ballard's mission is to deliver fuel-cell expertise toward valuable and innovative solutions globally. "We consider agreements like the one with Chart and Gemini critical to advancing clean and innovative transportation. Both Gemini and Chart align with Ballard's company values and have the right mix of talent, innovation, and know-how to make great strides in this space," stated Marc Niefer, General Manager, Business Unit Trucks and Vice President Customer Care of Ballard.
Chart Industries is a global leader in the design, engineering, and manufacturing of process technologies and equipment for the Nexus of Clean™ -- clean power, clean water, clean food, and clean industrials, regardless of the molecule. While Chart services a global, diverse set of end markets, their reputation for quality, excellence in ESG, and forming strategic partnerships is well-known. "At Chart, we're proud to be at the forefront of the clean energy transition, and we're excited to team up with two industry leaders, Ballard and Gemini, to accelerate decarbonization in the long-haul trucking space," said Jill Evanko, CEO of Chart Industries.

Compass Innovations™, a leader in healthcare technology, announced the release of VirtuVisit™, a telehealth platform that takes patient care beyond video and voice. While simple voice and video technology served as an effective temporary solution during the pandemic, the demand for quality patient experience remains.
Compass Innovations recently began working with Amazon Web Services (AWS) as a member of the AWS Public Sector Partner (PSP) Program, with a focus on healthcare. AWS brings powerful tools and services to the market, such as Amazon Chime, Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2), and Amazon Comprehend. Compass Innovations builds on these core capabilities with healthcare-specific, patented intellectual property to deliver a clean, intuitive virtual-care experience. Integrating VirtuVisit with electronic health record (EHR) systems, such as Epic, seamlessly automates the documentation effort, giving providers more time to focus on the patient encounter and delivering new analytical insights on patient/provider interactions. The resultant analytical insights produced from the visit interactions are powered by Amazon QuickSight.
Compass Innovation's creators know clinicians are overworked and patients want meaningful connections with their care team. VirtuVisit recognizes keywords, voice inflections, and more via natural language processing (NLP) capabilities and AI, which improves efficiency and delivers greater insight across the enterprise. VirtuVisit utilizes NLP to identify and report if a provider speaks differently or inconsistently across encounters, which could signify a potential unconscious bias. With this information, healthcare systems can apply positive deviation best practices to address and correct issues before they become larger and more visible problems to patients.
Beyond care delivery, sentiment analysis can detect, analyze, and flag concerns with patients in advance of traditional survey strategies. Having proactive virtual interaction information helps identify areas of strength and improvement opportunities in near real time. VirtuVisit can improve patient interactions with every visit, and the new insights gained can elevate the delivery of equitable care.
"VirtuVisit elevates the power of AWS, taking telehealth beyond video and voice recording. This tool empowers clinicians to deliver better care and optimize operations. We lessen potential time-consuming clicks in a clinician's day, so they can focus on the patient's issue instead of typing patient notes and listening simultaneously. We are taking bold steps to automate the patient intake process and capture the diagnostic encounter, providing analytics insight across a health care system in a way that was never possible in a brick-and-mortar world," said Kevin Carr, M.D., Founder of Compass Innovations.
VirtuVisit is scalable for all healthcare providers and EHR systems and integrates with additional customer relationship management products. Features are configurable and include NLP and AI-embedded workflows, virtual voice assistant device integration, mobile and desktop one-click access, EHR workflow integration, and more. Visit https://my-compass.io/aws to book a demo.
VirtuVisit is a product of the Compass Innovations software suite: my.compass.io/apps/.

iQuanti: Nowadays, it's not uncommon to have a side hustle to supplement your income or explore your passion. From candle making to dog walking to freelance writing, there are endless opportunities to make some extra cash. Whether you're just getting started with your side hustle or you've been at it for a while, it's always helpful to have a checklist of things to keep in mind.
Here are 10 things that will help you make the most of your side gig:
1. Make sure you're marketing yourself well. Get the word out there about what you're offering and why people should care. Be active on social media, connect with potential customers and clients, and make sure your website is up to date. Sometimes building a platform and getting customers takes time, so be patient and consistent with your marketing efforts.
2. Be timely. When running your own business, it's easy to get bogged down in the details and lose track of time. Make sure you deliver your product or service on time and keep to your schedule. Especially if you're in a niche field, customers talk to each other, and they'll know if you're reliable or not.
3. Keep your main hustle in mind. Your side hustle should complement and supplement your primary source of income. It shouldn't take focus or time away from your full-time job, where you get the bulk of your income and your benefits — health insurance, dental, life insurance, and more. Do your best to keep a balance between the two.
4. Do your research. When you're first starting out, it's important to do your research and figure out what you're getting yourself into. Learn about your industry, understand the market, and know your competition.
5. Get feedback. Once you've got a few projects under your belt, it's important to get feedback from your clients or customers. This will help you improve your services and make sure you're on the right track.
6. Keep track of your income and expenses. When you're running a side hustle, it's important to keep track of your income and expenses for tax purposes. This will help you stay organized and save time when filing.
7. Make sure you're doing something you care about. It's easy to get burned out when you're working on something that doesn't interest you. Make sure you're passionate about what you're doing or you might lose motivation.
8. Keep your passion alive. Along the same lines, remember that your side hustle is a passion project and you're doing what you love. If you lose motivation, it can be helpful to remember why you're doing this in the first place, change things up slightly or even take a short break.
9. Keep an eye on your profit margins. When you're running a side hustle, it's important to keep an eye on your profit margins and make sure you're not losing money. You might be spending more money on things like travel, shipping or materials than you're actually making. Knowing how much things cost and adjusting your prices accordingly will help you sustain your business in the long run.
10. Be prepared for bumps in the road. No business is perfect, and there will inevitably be some bumps along the way. The important thing is to stay positive and keep moving forward.
If you can keep these 10 things in mind, you may be well on your way to making the most of your side hustle.
iQuanti: If you're interested in investing, you may have come across the term "junk bonds." But what exactly are junk bonds, how are they traded, and why are they considered riskier than other types of bonds?
Let's look at what junk bonds are and how they work:
What are bonds?
To understand junk bonds, it's important to understand how bonds work in general. A bond is essentially an IOU. When you buy a bond, you're lending money to a government, municipality, corporation, federal agency or other entity known as the issuer. In return, the issuer promises to pay you interest over a specified term and to repay the loan when the bond matures or comes due. When you buy a bond, you become a creditor of the issuer. Of course, there are many different types of bonds with different features, but these are the basics.
Junk bonds explained
Junk bonds are corporate bonds that are rated below investment-grade by credit rating agencies. These agencies use letter grades to rate the creditworthiness of bonds. The ratings differ slightly between agencies but, in general, "AAA" is the highest rating and "D" is the lowest. The lower the rating, the more likely the company is to default. Bonds that are a certain B-level rating or below are considered junk bonds.
Junk bonds typically have higher interest rates than investment-grade bonds, which makes them more attractive to investors looking for higher yields. However, junk bonds also carry a higher risk of default, which means that investors could lose all or part of their investment. Overall, junk bonds do offer higher returns, but the risk that the issuer will file for bankruptcy and you'll lose your original investment is considered much higher than investment-grade bonds.
How do you buy and sell junk bonds?
When it comes to investing in junk bonds, there are two main options: buying individual bonds or investing in funds, such as mutual funds and exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Buying individual bonds is riskier, as it concentrates your money in fewer investments. Investing in bond funds can provide diversification and professional expertise that can help reduce the overall risk. The best option for you will depend on your financial goals and risk tolerance.
Deciding whether to invest in junk bonds
Junk bonds are considered riskier than investment-grade bonds and can offer higher rewards. Ultimately, whether you invest in junk bonds at all will depend on your individual goals and risk tolerance. For this reason, it is important to research the investment carefully and weigh the risks and benefits of each option before deciding what is right for you.
