Self-employed CNA's sometimes have challenges in meeting this requirement, but they also have some interesting opportunities. There is no. Need to be bored. For example, there are professional conferences. Here in South Florida, the annual Alzheimer's conference. Why shouldn't meeting CE requirements be really interesting? Thursday, 27 May, 2010.

Elder Care Notebook: The Caregiver's Notebook

http://eldercarenotebook.blogspot.com/2009/11/caregivers-notebook.html

Imagine this. A well credentialed caregiver shows up at a new client and is briefed at length by the previous caregiver, who is leaving. This new caregiver listens to everything without making any notes at all on this complex case. She is there, her first day, without the thought of keeping a notebook! Secondly, a condensed notebook to bring to routine doctors' appointments. Ask the client's doctors what they would like to see in this book, and remember that they will want to scan it easily from the ...

Elder Care Notebook: Safety 'Chair Rails'

http://eldercarenotebook.blogspot.com/2011/03/safety-chair-rails.html

One client had an interesting idea for a chair rail. Rather than putting up decorative trim, the client had a more functional rail made, which was used on long stretches of wall around the house. In this case, the rail was used along the living room and in hall areas. Standing back, it looks like a substantial piece of woodworked trim, but up close it's much more functional. It serves as a sturdy hand-rail or banister, and also as wall protection against bumps by the wheelchair or walker. Technical and e...

Elder Care Notebook: CNA? or HHA?

http://eldercarenotebook.blogspot.com/2009/07/cna-or-hha.html

Or Home Health Aide. Which is more appropriate? When I worked in home care in a different state, I was trained and certified as a Home Health Aide. Since I was not 'assisting nurses' but rather providing private care, a CNA designation seemed less relevant. Florida, where I live, recognizes that there are HHA's in the workforce, but it does not test or license them. Florida only requires that some appropriate but unregulated training be given, by agencies themselves, for HHA's that they place. I would ju...

Elder Care Notebook: Expiration Dates

http://eldercarenotebook.blogspot.com/2009/11/expiration-dates.html

When taking on any new home care case, don't forget to check expiration dates on all food as well as, of course, medicine. This point was also mentioned briefly in the earlier Disaster Preparedness.
