Teleconference
The Aide's Role in Men's Health Issues Research shows that men are far less knowledgeable than women about health in general and about specific diseases, such as cancer. Lack of health knowledge is a major contributor to delays in seeking care for health issues. This teleconference will describe some of the more common men's health issues such as benign prostatic hyperplasia, prostate cancer, erectile dysfunction, testicular disorders and gynecomastia. Armed with a better understanding, the Aide will be able to better help our male patients manage these issues in the home.
For home health agencies, this hour long teleconference may be used to help meet the 12 hours per year education requirements under the Medicare Conditions of Participation. An educational investment in your aides pays off in quality care.
REGISTRATION DEADLINE: November 6, 2009
