Regional Learning Collaboratives

What is a Learning Collaborative?

The adoption of culture change practices is both exciting and challenging. It is natural for staff to want to fall back on the tried and true and to have concerns about change. The learning collaboratives are designed to provide your team with the coaching and mentoring you need in order to adopt successful strategies of transformational change.

The Regional Learning Collaboratives provide the opportunity for a team from your nursing home to learn theory and then apply it in practice over time. The teams will meet for a year – with quarterly learning sessions and monthly support meetings held between the quarterly learning sessions.
