Extend your learning from the Caregiver-Centred Care (CCC) education by participating in this dynamic simulation experience.
This micro-credential simulation experience will take your appreciation and understanding of partnering and supporting caregivers to the next level.
Simulation provides a low-risk opportunity to turn your knowledge into practical skills by incorporating CCC into your engagement with simulated patients and their caregivers (actors trained to play the role) in realistic situations and settings. You will expand your skills in homecare, inpatient, and virtual settings alongside other interdisciplinary healthcare staff, learning together through in-depth preparation, simulations, and debriefs.
Ideal for:
-
Individual health and community care professionals seeking to flex their CCC skills, and
-
interdisciplinary teams working to develop a culture of CCC in their unit or organization
Participants are required to have completed the following (free) CCC Education prior to registration:
After completing CCC Levels 1&2 and the simulation experience, learners will be able to:
-
describe the roles and complexities of being a caregiver, and their importance to the health system
