Adverse Events in Healthcare 2026
Stacy Donnelly, RN, BSN, Nursing and Nursing Home Expert with DJS will present the complementary CLE webinar, “Adverse Events in Healthcare,” on February 17th at 12 pm EST. When a person is admitted to a nursing home or skilled nursing facility, they generally expect that the medical care they receive will improve their health, not worsen it. Unfortunately, that is not always the case. An “adverse event” is described as harm to a patient as a result of medical care, including failure to provide care.
Covering a wide range of maladies, an adverse event can encompass anything from an abrasion to death. In this webinar, Nurse Donnelly identifies factors in determining preventability of the incident and discusses how the continuum of care concept applies to adverse events.
This webinar is approved for 1.0 CLE credit (substantive) in Colorado, Delaware, Florida, and Pennsylvania. Please refer to the attendee notices below for information regarding CLE in other states.
