New Infection Control Training

CMS announced Tuesday a new infection control training available to nursing homes: “CMS Targeted COVID-19 Training for Frontline Nursing Home Staff and Management”. Read the announcement here. This training is designed for both front-line staff and nursing home management, with separate training modules for each (5 for front-line staff, 10 for management). This self-paced training is available immediately on the CMS Quality, Safety & Education portal and certificates of completion will be available for each course completed. Additionally, subject matter experts from CMS and CDC will be available through bi-weekly webinars beginning this Thursday, August 27 and running through January 7.  You can register for these webinars here.
