title: People who make a difference. Interview by Wendy L. Bonifazi.
abstract: In last year's 20th anniversary issue, Contemporary started an annual tradition of honoring people whose innovative business practices, research, advocacy, and other efforts have shaped long term care. This year's four honorees have created groundbreaking tools for care, campaigned to promote the healthy growth of a fledgling form of care, and championed a vision for improving quality of life for residents.
