Are you committed to culture change, but unsure about how your nursing leadership will operate and interact under the Household Model? This intensely practical four-day workshop will equip your nursing leadership with the tools and knowledge they need to keep your home running smoothly during and after the transition.

Leadership in Nursing

Purpose: To provide nurse leaders with the knowledge and tools to think creatively and assume an active role in leading their organizations through the major change of implementing a new model of long term care, the Household Model.

"Nursing" and "home" - a familiar pairing. But how do we reconcile one with the other to offer quality of care and quality of life? What is the role of the nurse leader in culture change? Will the work ever get done? To help nurses find answers and solutions, Action Pact is offering Nurse Leader training.

The training will take place at Perham Memorial Hospital and Home in Perham, MN. The training, co-sponsored by Perham Memorial Home, will be led by Perham's DON Marilyn Oelfke and Director of Education Marnie Ammons. Both have years of nursing experience and have been instrumental in Perham's transformation into the Household Model, since 2004.

Throughout the four days, Marilyn and Marnie will address staffing, self-led teams, cross training, person-centered care, regulations, new skills and competencies for nurses in culture change homes. The training is designed for the nurse executive and nurse leaders in household, neighborhood and small house organizations. It can also be of great benefit to an executive team in the early design stages of determining how physical renovation and clinical care might merge into good care and a good daily life.

The cost of the four-day workshop is $1650. To register, download the registration form, fill it out and fax it back to us at (414)444-8815. For more information, call our offices at (414)258-3649 or email the instructors, Marilyn and Marnie.
