Culture Change in Long-Term Care

Wednesday, May 25, 2022

 

Join UNITE for a discussion of how culture change has improved quality of life for residents of tribal care facilities.

The mission of UNITE (Uniting Nursing Homes in Tribal Excellence) is to partner with and be a resource for Native American, Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian tribes to improve the quality of life for tribal elders by implementing evidence-based practices and culturally relevant education and training.

Objectives:

  • Learn how tribal nursing homes have incorporated culture change and Native language into their approach to care
  • Explain why culture change matters in tribal long-term care settings
  • Share common challenges associated with the incorporation of culture change
  • Hear about best practices for honoring death and dying with culture change
