What's New
Join us Thursday, July 8, at 3 pm EST (2 pm Central, 12 pm Pacific) for our latest working group call on going restraint free. Our special guest presenter will be Kimberly Bertini, RN, ANCC Magnet Recognition Program ® coordinator with the Cancer Treatment Centers of America at Midwestern Regional Medical Center (MRMC) in Zion, IL. MRMC has been successfully restraint free for five years. Kim will present a brief discussion about her facility’s experience with going restraint free before we open the floor to AHAP members to discuss their own successes and challenges. For more information, contact director Matt Phillion at mphillion@hcpro.com.
