Community VNA will host a screening of this webinar, which aired originally on August 24, 2020. At the conclusion of the program, participants can take an online exam for 1.5 CE credits through the Hospice Foundation of America (HFA).
Disproportionate COVID-19 deaths, due in part to healthcare disparities, and recent social unrest over systemic racism, have brought the experiences of Black Americans into sharp focus. This webinar examines how centuries of inequity and trauma, both acknowledged and ignored, have manifested as cumulative grief in the Black community; how that reality impacts health, health care, death, and loss; and what can be done to affect positive long-term change.
