Back to the Future: Moving Dining Forward|2023 Series|1:00 pm CT

From token to true choice, using regulations and standards to help people to eat what they want to eat, and live the lives they want to live. Shift culture to honor each individual and get back to normal/get back to home, in all things dining, just a part of vibrant daily living. Each webinar will be framed by culture change practices, the Dining Practice Standards, leaning into CMS requirements and the Artifacts of Culture Change 2.0, the domains of wellbeing embedded in the CMS RoPs, and Kitwood’s basic human needs.

Hosted and presented by Carmen Bowman MHS, BSW, Regulator turned Educator, with
Linda Bump MPH, RD, Action Pact Consultant, Licensed Nursing Home Administrator
