Program Overview:
Emergency Preparedness for Home Health & Hospice in Light of COVID-19

COVID-19 has put every agency to the test. Has your agency’s Emergency Preparedness plan been effective during the COVID-19 pandemic? In this session we will take a deep dive into the Emergency Preparedness CoPs and walk through what your agency needs to be doing to ensure compliance with the CoPs.
