The Best Friends Approach for Direct-Care Staff - Session Three of Four: Chicago, IL
Date: 6/16/2009 8:30 AM - 12:00 PM
Based on the pioneering work of Virginia Bell and David Troxel that uses the principles of friendship in a caregiving relationship, these interactive sessions bring practical issues alive. Nurses, social workers, case managers, nursing assistants, dietary workers, activity staff, and others involved in direct care will benefit from participation. All topics meet criteria for initial and annual training requirements by the State of Illinois for dementia Special Care Units and assisted living facilities. If you register for all four sessions, you may attend the last one at no additional charge.
Fee: $45/session or $135 for all four sessions. Everyone receives a certificate of completion and those seeking Continuing Education Units (CEUs) pay an extra $10 per session.
