I am new to my position in a LTC facility as the Inservice Coordinator/Director of Education/Infection Control RN
and wondered if anyone here does this job in their facility and might be able to direct me to some resources online. I need to set up inservices for the staff--CNAs, LPNs and other staff possibly (Dietary, housekeeping, etc.)
They can be longer more formal inservices or just short 10-15 min quick inservices that I can just do in small groups on each floor.
I would like to do something to address the issue we seem to have with staff not complying with the policy about wearing their name badges at all times, the issue of being aware of resident privacy during toileting, bathing, etc.
Handwashing.....but I need more ideas and would love to find a website with some materials I could use. Does anyone know of anything or have any good ideas of things you have covered..............
I am new to this role so I could use the expertise of you experienced LTC nurses.
