Irving Levin Associates, Inc. To Host “Governance: Legal Problems Your Board Can Avoid”

NORWALK, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Senior Living Business Interactive will be hosting a vital webcast to address legal problems your board can avoid on Wednesday, October 31, 2012. Is your board good, or is it lucky? Increased litigation against senior living providers and senior care facilities poses a financial risk to those organizations and in certain cases, exposes board members to claims of personal liability. What conduct/actions/decisions are appropriate for board members and what might make them—and the organization—vulnerable? How do you protect the organization’s assets? Against what types of risk must the board—and top management—protect the organization? Our panel of experts will shed light on these issues and explain how your board—and your organization—can set policies that effectively mitigate risk.
