The CALTCM WAVE: October 2026 Part I

A New Voice, Hot Topics & News You Can Use

Our last WAVE featured an article by outgoing CALTCM president Ashkan Javaheri, MD, CMD. Today’s WAVE has words of wisdom from our new president, Noah Marco, MD, CMD. Ashkan has a new article touching on a very controversial topic - “Are You Finishing Your Notes on the Same Day?” Apparently, in some states surveyors are citing facilities where the physician notes aren’t signed on the very date of the resident visit. In the News highlights two podcasts featuring CALTCM stalwarts Noah Marco and Karl Steinberg. Add the usual news and information about meetings, webinars and other educational opportunities, and you are riding the WAVE.

A Legacy of Leadership, A Community Moving Forward

CALTCM has been blessed by a series of superb leaders over the years, and in this WAVE our current president, Ashkan Javaheri, MD, CMD, shares “A Farewell Message from the CALTCM President.” Another former president and recipient of the CALTCM Lifetime Achievement Award, Tim Gieseke MD, shares a great idea - a CALTCM Assisted Living Community Focus Group.

The CALTCM WAVE: September 2026 Issue Part I

Stronger Connections. Practical Insights. Better Care.

As we approach the 2026 CALTCM Summit for Excellence later this month, the WAVE presents an article highlighting why your state organization has an important role in addition to any national and perhaps international organizations you participate in. Jennifer Birdsall, Ph.D., ABPP writes on “Why a State Chapter Meeting Still Matters.” We also feature one of our speakers, Jared Silberlust, MD, MPH presenting an article on “How I Actually Use AI and How to Find What Works for You”. The rest of the WAVE reflects the other great features of CALTCM, including the September 23 webinar on dementia that immediately precedes the Summit for Excellence. The WAVE and CALTCM have you covered!
