I want to share details of online training that directly addresses the setting of a case.
- Do you want to sharpen your skills in understanding nursing home litigation and liability issues?
- Are you a legal nurse consultant who has not worked in a nursing home, but yet needs to assist attorneys with nursing home litigation?
- Are you a nursing home expert witness who wants to broaden your knowledge?
My online training called Hot Spots in Nursing Home Litigation takes you into the world of nursing homes where documentation requirements, staffing, and regulations are markedly different from hospital ones. Learn from Barbara Johanson, an experienced nursing expert witness, about the special regulations that govern nursing home care. You will become familiar with the standard of care and best practices so that you may be better able to evaluate liability, damages and defenses for three hot spots in nursing home litigation:
- Pressure sores
- Dehydration/weight loss
- Accidents and incidents
