HANYS Recovery and Preparedness Webinar Series: How approaching vaccine hesitancy with compassion led a nursing home leader to success

3 - 4 p.m.

HANYS is pleased to host a conversation with Tina Sandri, chief executive officer, Forest Hills of DC nursing home and senior living community, as she shares her successful efforts in achieving vaccination of 86% of her staff (and still climbing). Sandri has been featured on CNN, Becker's Hospital Review, McKnight's Long-Term Care News and in The New York Times for her unique, trauma-informed and caring approach to vaccine hesitancy. Sandri will share the strategies that successfully led to the significantly large vaccine uptake among her staff.

This webinar will have time for questions and discussion; we encourage attendees to bring commentary from their own successes and challenges in this crucial area.

The COVID-19 pandemic has forced healthcare organizations and providers to navigate unprecedented operational and clinical challenges. In both surge and recovery phases, healthcare organizations and providers need to re-evaluate their operations and plans for delivering care in a post-pandemic world. As they plan for the new normal, healthcare leaders must consider their use of telemedicine, infection prevention and control practices, supply chain management and infrastructure changes. These webinars have featured national and state experts exploring strategies and considerations for the critical phases of the pandemic.
