LNHA invites you to "Parade Toward Excellence in Quality Care" and step into a lively Mardi Gras celebration where every attendee becomes part of the krewe on November 11-13, 2026, at the New Orleans Riverside Hilton. From the grand marshal to every rider on the float, each of us has a role in keeping the parade moving strong. Together, we'll second line our way through challenges, gather throws of inspiration, and let the spirit of collaboration lead us down the route toward better outcomes and brighter days for those we serve.
During the LNHA Trade Show, attendees will network with exhibitors and learn about cutting-edge products or services that make providing quality care more efficient and effective. With dedicated exhibit hours, you'll have plenty of opportunities to build relationships that last well beyond king cake season.
This year's Awards Luncheon will honor and recognize several exceptional nursing facility staff members throughout the state. Come roll with us and make your facility part of the krewe leading the charge. Grab your mask, join the parade and get registered today!
