Conversations with Carmen... A Monthly Webinar 

 

   Join our own culture change pundit Carmen Bowman, MHS, on her monthly web talk show. Actually, it's better than a talk show because you too can join the conversation by asking questions of Carmen and her guests. Carmen's smart look at culture change focuses on a wide variety of topics. She brings an insider's view of regulations, and reports on little changes happening in government, in attitude, in practice. Each month she will share culture change news and updates, amusing and heartwarming stories, and interview a guest on a relevant and timely topic.

Guest: Theresa Laufmann, RN

  Co-DON Oakview Terrace in SD -- an alarm-free home for six years

   Both the evidence-based and anecdotal research is in. Alarms do not prevent falls, alarms contribute to falls and by eliminating alarms you will see fall rates go down. But Oakview Terrace is way beyond that. Without the impersonal, noisy devices they have now experienced a new level of benefits such as reduced depression, pressure ulcers, incontinence, and ADL assistance needed also due to an all team approach, anticipating people’s needs, engaging staff and consistent checking in with those they serve.

   Read more about this in the new book Theresa and Carmen recently co-authored: Alarms: The New Deficient Practice?  Eliminating Alarms and Preventing Falls by Engaging with Life, available in the Action Pact webstore.

Carmen's webinars are held the third Friday of every month and run about an hour.
