WEBINAR DETAILS

The current world health crisis presents new challenges and concerns in providing hospice, home health, and palliative care. COVID-19 is creating a “new normal” in the healthcare industry. Is your agency prepared to embrace all aspects of a new normal?

This webinar will identify critical best-practice policies, procedures, and processes to implement and follow moving forward. Discover the importance of using current technologies as a tool, syndromic surveillance, a designated COVID-19 team, and your agency’s role in contact tracing. Learn how to manage the impact of ongoing stress and grief for better patient care and to avoid staff burnout. Communication resources will also be reviewed, including how to communicate with patients, staff, providers, and the public until a vaccine is established.

Attendance certificate provided to self-report CE credits.
