SUMMARY:N95 Fit Testing
DESCRIPTION:Hosted by SafeCare BC \nWe understand that fit-testing services for N95 respirators have become more scarce in some areas due to the pandemic and that this is a challenge for some of our members. We want to ensure that care settings that wish to fit-test their staff – for example\, so that care staff can perform aerosol-generating medical procedures\, or as preparedness for possible airborne pathogens or other respiratory hazards – can continue to do so. SafeCare BC is therefore offering two pilot fit-testing sessions in partnership with Mountainview Safety Services. This is not a Train-the-Trainer session\, it is an opportunity for staff to be fit-tested. \nThese sessions will take place on November 3rd and 4th in the SafeCare BC Training Centre in Burnaby. Fit-testing will be provided on these days at a reduced cost of $10 per person. If you have any questions\, please contact Jenni Cannon at jcannon@safecarebc.ca. \nTo register for this workshop\, please visit the Learning Space. \nTo complete registration: \n\nSign up for an account\,\nSelect N95 Fit Testing\,\nSelect a 30-minute session time slot that works best for you. Sessions are limited to four people\,\nEnroll!

SUMMARY:Dementia Care in the Time of COVID-19
DESCRIPTION:Master Clinician Series \nFor family caregivers\, navigating the complexity of caring for a loved one with dementia can be overwhelming during the best of times. A pandemic with quarantine for some\, and little to no visitation for all\, may push both the person living with dementia and their family caregivers over the edge\, overwhelming the capacity of their resources. Media and information overload\, fear\, frustration\, and anger can make day-to-day decisions difficult. Learning to adapt dementia care during these stressful times is a challenge\, and requires some imagination and changes in the way we provide care. In this Master Clinician\, Leslie Evertson and Dr. David Reuben will share tips on what to do—and what not to do—for people living with dementia\, and family caregivers\, during the time of COVID-19. \nPresented by: Leslie Chang Everston\, DNP\, RN\, GNP-BC and David B. Reuben\, MD \nClick to register.
