ECHO Webinar Series

The ECHO National Nursing Home COVID-19 Action Network hosted a Nursing Home Introductory Webinar series in October.  The series included five 30-minute sessions that were designed to provide nursing home staff with a 15-minute update on infection control best practices, 10-minute introduction to the National Nursing Home COVID-19 Action Network led by the ECHO-IHI team, and 5 minutes (or more as availability allows) for participant questions. These sessions were designed to give participants an introduction to what the Network will be like and drove participants to register to participate in this initiative.

The Network is open to any nursing facility in the country at no cost. You can learn more here and signup here.

Please note: In Indiana, IU and Parkview are applying to become a Hub and if they are approved, Indiana nursing facilities that sign-up are likely to be assigned to that Hub.

Nursing facilities eligible to receive funding from the Provider Relief Fund (PRF) can receive $6,000 in compensation for participating.
