Leadership in Nursing

Purpose: To provide Nurse Leaders with the knowledge and tools to think creatively and assume an active role in leading their organizations through the major change of implementing a new model of long term care -- the Household Model.

"Nursing" and "home" - a familiar pairing. But how do we reconcile one with the other to offer quality of care and quality of life? What is the role of the nurse leader in culture change? Will the work ever get done? To help nurses find answers and solutions, Action Pact is offering Nurse Leader training.

 Presenters: The session will be led by Gloria Blackmon, BSN, RN-BC, DNS-CT.

Throughout the session, the leaders will address staffing, self-led teams, cross training, person-centered care, regulations, new skills and competencies for nurses in culture change homes. The training is designed for the nurse executive and nurse leaders in household, neighborhood and small house organizations. It can also be of great benefit to an executive team in the early design stages of determining how physical renovation and clinical care might merge into good care and a good daily life.   

Continuing Education: This activity has been submitted to WNA CEAP for approval to award contact hours. Wisconsin Nurses Association is accredited  as an approver of continuing nursing education by the American Nurses Credentialing Center’s Commission on Accreditation. 

A certificate showing contact hours will be awarded at conclusion of course, following the 2nd of two follow-up teleconferences. Contact hours will not be awarded without attendance at all three days of in-person session. This is the minimum requirement.

Attendance at the two subsequent teleconference sessions will earn 1.75 contact hours each. Total contact hours awarded if all portions of the activity are attended:  25.5.

Tuition for this course is $2,600.
