Long-term Care Front-line Worker Safety Amid COVID-19
These webinars are available to ALL long-term care providers in New Hampshire, courtesy of the NHHCA, NHARCH, and LA-MENH.

Long-Term Care Front-line workers are concerned about the safety of their residents during the COVID-19 pandemic, but they are also concerned about their own safety and the safety of their loved ones at home.  The two short webinars (15-20 min each) are designed to equip them with the information to keep themselves safe and do all they can to keep their residents and their loved ones safe.  We hope these will allay some of the fears your front-line staff are facing regarding safety and transmission.  We recognize that the largest audience for these webinars will not be during the live presentations, but in viewing the recordings.

Hope and Rebuilding
A message from Frank DeAngelis, former Principal of Columbine High School
Frank DeAngelis was the keynote presenter at the NHHCA’s Fall Conference & Trade Show in September 2019. His message of how to bring your team – and your community – through tragedy into success was met with a standing ovation! Frank will be coming back to New Hampshire – Via Zoom Meeting – to share ideas for how you can start working with your team NOW to assure success as you move through and come out of this chaos.
