Could your team benefit from learning techniques to prevent, de-escalate and respond to resident staff aggression? If so, get them registered for the upcoming Long-Term Care Resident to Staff Aggression: Prevention and Response training.  This opportunity is not just for nursing staff. Employees from all departments and roles will benefit.  

There is no cost to attend since the training is funded by an OSHA Susan Harwood Targeted Training Grant.  The training is designed specifically for long-term care employees.  The interactive training will be offered in several formats starting in March.   All attendees will receive a certificate of completion and those licensed in Kansas may be eligible for CE credits. The training is offered in multiple formats, locations, dates, and times for convenience. 

The number from each organization that can attend is not limited, but spaces in each session are so get registered today! For more information or to get registered, visit Resident To Staff Aggression Training (leadingagekansas.org).
