Webinar Description

As the long-term care community becomes more diverse, representing a variety of ethnic and cultural considerations, long-term care communities need to ensure that staff understand and embrace the value of sensitivity and cultural competence in the workplace. This session explores the regulatory and employee expectations for diversity, equity, and inclusion in matters of communication and responsiveness to the potential barriers to harmony. This discussion will focus on developing a set of standards and practices that support effective and sustainable pathways to achieving the organization’s goals for inclusion, cultural competence, and quality of life.
