About this Webinar for Healthcare Professionals
This webinar will equip healthcare professionals with an understanding of military veterans’ unique medical, emotional, and spiritual needs as they near the end of life.
Attendees will explore the elements that support veteran-specific cultural competency in non-VA healthcare facilities.
Topics include PTSD, the concept of moral or “soul” injury, military cultural values and their impact on help-seeking behaviors, and factors that influence veterans’ military-to-civilian transitions.
Continuing education credit is available to nurses (RN, LPN, LVN; in California, Registered Nurses only), social workers and certified case managers, as well as licensed nursing home administrators in the states of Florida and Illinois.
Attendees can earn one CE hour. See below for full certification information and instructions.
