Training coordinators at SNF or staff at LHD may use Project Firstline materials for new staff orientations, in-services, on the spot trainings, and more. Materials can be shared in a number of ways not limited to the following:
- Play the recorded webinars for your staff
- Use the slides and corresponding scripts to engage staff in a live, interactive presentation
- Extract key messages from our material to incorporate in your organizationās existing trainings and communications for staff
- LHD or corporate entities may wish to convene jurisdiction-wide events.
Plan Your Curriculum
The Project Firstline CNA trainings consist of 8 modules, each designed to provide 30 minutes of training content with optional post-training discussion (up to 30 minutes) using the Questions and Answers files. All modules include prompt questions throughout to engage CNA in a conversation.
Training Modules
Training modules are stand-alone presentations. We recommend starting with Modules 1ā3 as your foundation courses. Modules 4ā8 highlight common tasks performed by CNA in the context of IPC practices; these may be presented in any order if needed. Each section below includes a brief description, curriculum slides with presenter notes, a link to the corresponding presentation recordings, pre- and post-training questions, poll and chat questions, questions and answers for additional discussion, and promotional material. Training materials are available in English and Spanish.āā
