Leading Teams During a Crisis: COVID-19 and Beyond
Are you concerned about the stress and energy levels among your practice and team members related to COVID-19? If so, attend this HCCIntelligence™ webinar on Wednesday, September 16, 4 pm – 5 pm (Central Time), entitled Leading Teams During a Crisis: COVID-19 and Beyond. During the webinar, you’ll learn how to conduct an assessment using a Joy in Work framework that measures burnout. You’ll also learn how to develop and use a “team-based care” approach during a crisis and explore ways to move beyond the crisis. Plus, this timely topic will be impactful for anyone who manages teams, even those not in a “practice setting.” 

The presenter for the webinar will be Cheryl Fattibene, DNP, MSN, MPH, CRNP, Family Nurse Practitioner at La Comunidad Hispana, and Clinical and Practice Management Liaison for the National Nurse Practitioner Entrepreneur Network (NNPEN).
Take the AAHCM Survey to be a Voice in
the Future of Home Care Education
On behalf of our partners at the American Academy of Home Care Medicine (AAHCM) Education Committee, the Home Centered Care Institute invites you to participate in a brief survey on home care medicine education. The purpose of the survey is to learn about existing educational methods and guide the development of a shared educational resource for learners (e.g., students, residents, fellows) about house calls.

You are invited to participate in this survey if you provide medical care to older adults in their homes. Your input is valuable and will help guide the next steps in this process.

The survey is open until Friday, September 25, 2020, and takes just 5-10 minutes to complete. Thank you in advance for your participation.

Key Partner Announcements
The Coalition to Transform Advanced Care (C-TAC), with support from the Person-Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI) as part of their Eugene Washington Engagement Award for Capacity Building grant, is convening a Virtual Forum on Friday, September 24, from 1:30 to 2:45 Central Time in partnership with the Cleveland Clinic. The Forum will highlight the findings of three pioneering research studies on communication, ACP, and decision-making led by distinguished PCORI-funded academic investigators.

According to C-TAC, the purpose of the Forum, entitled How to Communicate to Improve Advance Care Planning: Putting Research Into Practice, is to place these person-centered, actionable PCORI studies in the hands of implementors – health system leaders, individual providers, payers, community and state coalitions, and advocacy groups – who can use the research findings to improve the delivery of care for patients living with advanced illness.

Speaker presentations will be followed by a virtual audience Q&A.
