The Collaboration for Homecare Advances in Management and Practice (CHAMP) is offering a new online geriatric medication management course for nurses and other care providers with the goal of improving patient outcomes. According to CHAMP, most older homecare patients are taking over five medications and medication-related problems are a leading cause of avoidable rehospitalizations. The course costs $149 per person and offers CEU's to nurses. 

Another cool thing about CHAMP is that they have an online community! In the community, homecare professionals can post questions, connect with others, and share experiences. The CHAMP community also offers access to industry experts who share their knowledge and expertise about homecare best practices. Definitely an organization worth checking out.
