A lot of research is available suggesting that nurses are not trained properly in geriatric issues. With the population aging, it is going to be extremely important that nurses are able to care for older adults. After nursing school, much of the training nurses get is through continuing education courses. I am unable to find any continuing education courses specifically directed at nurses who work in long-term care. Does anyone know of any websites that offer continuing education specifically for nurses who work in long-term care?
