Restorative Nursing Program Scheduled November 18th

VHCA (10/23/09)

Person Centered Care through Restorative Nursing is scheduled for November 18th at the Holiday Inn – Select in Richmond.  The program will focus on defining the areas necessary to ensure person centered care, including safety, independence, quality of life and burden of care.  These areas will be defined and addressed as they relate to allowing residents/patients to age in place as defined by their environment of choice.  The one-day event provides an opportunity for attendees to learn how to engage their residents in making decisions related to their restorative care.  The implementation of a successful Restorative Nursing Program will be discussed from a practical perspective and will facilitate an understanding of the importance of involving the interdisciplinary team in the development of the facility’s restorative program.

The Virginia Health Care Association would like to thank Heritage Healthcare for its help in sponsoring this program.  For more information go to the VHCA website.
