What to Expect on the Webinar (DAY 1 & DAY 2):

Day 1: PM Session – Fall Reduction (1 hr  Approved) Train the Trainer (2 hrs Approved) Infection Control (2 hrs Approved)

This course has been designed to provide 4 hours on laws and regulations. The morning session will start with a pursuit of a caring culture and why our industry is so special.  We then move into an update on CA’s everchanging labor law and OSHA landscape. If we need to stay updated on labor law then so do you. The average US company has a 10.5% chance of being sued by an employee with the average cost of defense and settlement being $160,000 per lawsuit. California employers have a 46% higher chance of litigation above that rate. The afternoon session will focus on reducing the risk of falls. We then move into understanding how to properly train staff and techniques for retention—finishing with two hours on infection control which will be a focus of licensing inspection for the foreseeable future.

Day 2: AM Session – LGBTQ Update (1 hrs LGBT Approved)
Dementia and the Brain (4 hrs Dementia Approved)
Day 2: PM Session – Beyond Dementia (5 hrs Dementia Approved)

This course has been designed to provide 1 hour on LGBT and 9 hours on dementia. The morning session will focus on 1 hour of instruction in cultural competency and sensitivity in issues relating to the underserved aging lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender community. We will then move into effective care strategies for different behaviors including dementia-related behaviors.  The afternoon session will focus on the care and management of dementia in residential care.
