Health Ambassador Training – Blacksburg

June 20 @ 9:30 am - 12:00 pm EDT

The Health Quality Innovation Network (HQIN) and Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health are offering free regional in-person Health Ambassador Trainings for nursing home staff. This training uses the Be REAL (Relate, Explore, Assist, Leave the door open) framework, which focuses on building trust by forming relationships, targeting resources responsive to a facility’s population and always keeping the door open for interactions to improve health outcomes.

Two individuals may register per facility and a maximum of 40 participants will be allowed for each session. Recommended participants include all staff, i.e. nurses, nursing assistants, social services, dietary and environmental services. Also, please consider sending a resident, family member or volunteer.

These sessions will be interactive and include group discussion, small-group activities, games, as well as an opportunity to practice what has been learned.
