good training
Very infomative
great to know
Lots of good information and reminders for staff in HealthCare regarding how patients should be treated and respected. It is sad that the world we live in today focuses on taking care of people who either dont’ have disabilities or are of younger age with very few disabilities. I hear family complaints, physicians don’t take me seriously cause I’m old or on Medicaid. It is defiently a broken system. Respect and diginity go along way!
