Advanced Caregiver-Centered Care

Document Type: Learning Module

Overview

The Caregiver-Centered Care: Advanced Caregiver Centered Care module takes an in-depth look at the importance of assisting family caregivers in navigating health and community care systems. This instruction challenges nurses to reflect on their own professional practice and seek ways to be more effective in assisting and mentoring family caregivers to find and access the resources they need.

LPNs deal directly with caregivers and are in a unique position to help recognize, respond, and refer to the needs of caregivers. This module provides the baseline knowledge and skills required to interact with family caregivers in all settings. (Caregiver’s own home, community, and healthcare).

NOTE: This is a supplementary module to the Caregiver-Centered Care (Foundational Learning) CLPNA Learning Module.
