2024 Fall Training: Cultivating Compassionate Care in Senior Housing

October 8 @ 9:30 am - 4:00 pm

LeadingAge New Jersey and Delaware is pleased to have Integrated Care Concepts and Consultation (ICCC) lead Fall Training to be held on October 8th, 2024.

Larry Thompson, Founder and Partner of ICCC and a member of his team will address resident and workforce issues in Senior Housing and Home Care / HCBS, and provide tools or strategies to handle them; at the same time, ICCC will address the professional development and continuing education (CE) needs of our members.

Many residents are choosing to age in place and facing more health, grief, loss, and other concerns. LANJDE hopes this training will better equip our members, their communities, and all staff to effectively communicate and compassionately care for their residents using various skills and techniques during the more difficult times.

Target Audience: Executive Directors, Leasing and Property Managers, Maintenance Staff, Service Coordinators, Social Workers, Home Health Care Workers and All Other Frontline Staff serving or assisting residents in Affordable Senior Housing, Independent Living, Home Health Care, & HCBS. Due to the scope of the education topics presented, this training is applicable for those working in Long Term Care and Assisted Living settings as well. 

The below courses (in boldface print) qualify for both social work and service coordinator CEUs.
