Woodingford Lodge, together with the RNAO LTC best practices program, created a video depicting interaction of a management team attending a morning meeting.  It is subsequent to the five videos developed by Parkview Manor Health Care Centre, illustrating interactions between staff and residents in long-term care. 

Presentation provides:

• an introduction and purpose of the video
• an overview of the facilitator's guide
• accessible links of the video and facilitator's guide

This webinar is intended for long-term care leaders and staff to open up a dialogue with staff members on what is considered abuse and neglect, what the policies and laws are on this matter and procedures to follow.

Session Objectives:

• utilize the facilitator's guide to support education of staff
• clarify expectations of reporting suspected abuse and neglect
• review whistle-blower protection
• moral, ethical, professional and legal responsibilities for reporting suspected abuse and neglect

The webinar is offered free of charge, registration is required to participate in a session. For more information, please contact Citlali Singh at csingh@RNAO.ca.
