• Describe how staff diversity can influence work situations, and identify ways to improve staff interactions with those they support

This all-virtual nurse learning program is for Leading Age members and will utilize the Nurse LEAD materials available through the Leading Age Learning Hub. Participants will sign up for the series to collectively participate and will complete the modules in the Learning Hub prior to attending each live virtual session. Participants will be able to discuss applicable lessons on the modules with other participants from across the state.

Implementing the lessons as a group will deepen understanding, provide discussion opportunities, and strengthen the ability to extend learning to their own community. Experienced nurse leaders from across the state will participate in facilitation of this group to share experiences and support nurses at all levels to improve their clinical and leadership skills. Aging services nurse leadership experts will also share learning lessons with the group on the weekly topics being discussed.
