Professional Development Days
All
registered and licensed practical nurses who work for Family Lives are
required each year to show competencies in several skills and knowledge
areas which are importan to the quality of care we provide to the young
people we serve. Family Lives offers two ways in which these
competancies can be completed:
• Attend one of our voluntary Professional Development
Day sessions: choose one location and either the day or evening
session. As we have done for the last few years, we are again
combining skills and competencies trainings together with relevant
education including contact hours! In order to
maximize the number of contact hours you receive there will be both
live contact hour sessions and self-study modules. Lunch or
dinner is provided with opportunities to network with other nurses and
Family Lives professionals. You may also renew your CPR. There is
no cost to attend.
Choose ONE location and ONE session as
follows:
Each session is the same and consists of:
- Opening Address
- Welcome Raffle
- "Special Education And The Family Lives Client"
- Documentation: Foundations for Practice (1.0 Contact Hours) (Compentency)
- Professional Practice (1.0 Contact Hours) (Compentency)
- Nursing Boundaries (1.0 Contact Hours) (Competency)
- Pharmacology (Compentency)
- OSHA Training (Competency)
- Medical Device Safety Act (Competency)
- Sexual Harassment (Competency)
- Federal Claims Act (Competency)
- Buffet Lunch or Dinner
- CPR Renewal will follow the end of each session so will require additional time
• Attend the Saturday session, May 31, 2014 at 9:00 a.m. This
session is held at our Westborough office. There are no contact
hours, benefits, or any other perks associated with the Saturday
session. CPR will NOT be offered. This is strictly a competency based
session and is required if you do not attend one of the above
professional development days.
Registration is required to attend all sessions: To Register for
Professional Development Day, or the Saturday session, please contact
the Westborough Office at (508) 475-0493. PLEASE INDICATE:
- Which location you will attend;
- The session you will attend (day or evening); and,
- Whether you need CPR renewal.
