Mental Health Continuing Education Programs for Long-Term Care Providers.
National Inst. of Mental Health (DHEW), Rockville, MD.
A national mental health continuing education program for personnel employed in long-term care facilities was developed by the National Institute of Mental Health's Continuing Education Branch. The immediate goal was to demonstrate linkage between mental health, continuing education, and long-term care resources to increase the knowledge and skills of caregivers, based on the assumption that the training would improve the psychosocial aspects of caregiving. The program strategy included involvement of identified leaders in the field, development of demonstration-model-training programs, and strengthening regional office capabilities. This report details demonstration models at Adelphi University School of Nursing and Social Work, Hofstra University School of Education, Massachusetts Mental Health Center and the Boston University School of Social Work; North Texas State University; University of Southern California; and Iowa Lakes Community College.
