New Learning Modules Released

Developing knowledge, unpacking preconceived notions, and dispelling ageism are important parts of nursing practice when working with older people. The CLPNA has partnered with the University of Alberta Faculty of Nursing to deliver three new learning modules designed to equip nurses with knowledge and skills to work with older people in a variety of settings.
Theses clinical and research-focused learning modules were developed based on research outlining practicing nurses’ and student nurses’ learning needs related to working with older people. The modules are available to LPNs through myCLPNA.

Continence and Mobility
Research shows practicing nurses and student nurses indicated they need further professional development associated with the care of clients with continence and mobility issues. Integrative review of the literature revealed that nurses often lack the knowledge to assess continence needs and the mobilization of older people
