About the Presenter:
Kimberly R. Stuart practices appellate law, commercial litigation, and employment and labor law.
As the oldest of her generation in a very large Italian family from Brooklyn (who got to Texas as quickly as she could), Kimberly learned early that to be heard,

openly and frankly. Kimberly’s representative employment law experience includes successfully defending employers in FLSA wage actions and Title VII litigation.
An important part of Kimberly’s practice is helping her clients avoid litigation altogether through reviewing contracts, conducting self-audits to ensure regulatory
compliance, and assisting clients with best practices training and compliance. In her employment practice outside the courtroom, Kimberly handles all varieties of
employment disputes, including claims of discrimination, retaliation, harassment, wrongful termination, breach of contract, and employment-related torts.
She drafts, evaluates, and updates personnel handbooks, workplace policies, employment contracts, and severance agreements. Kimberly has defended numerous clients
in matters before the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, Texas Workforce Commission, and the Department of Labor, as well as other state and federal agencies,
resulting in dismissals.

§558.260[a][4]ethics
§558.260[a][8]skills for working with clients, families, and other professional service providers
Program Description:Home Health agencies have a duty of care for the patients/clients they serve. A duty of care refers to the obligation to
take responsible care to avoid injury to a person whom, it can be reasonably foreseen, might be injured by an act or omission. Omission is often the area that puts agencies at greatest risk.
A clinician didn’t know how to meet a need, therefore, they overlook that it exist. In home health, the care you provide must be looked at through a multidisciplinary lens where multiple
complex issues will arise. As an Administrator, there will be times you are dependent on outside resources, and community partners, to solve a need. It is also important to understand
ethical issues associated with using outside resources, including ensuring that there are no “kickbacks” associated with using other community partners.
This presentation teaches Administrators how, and where, to locate community resources for their patients/clients, how to utilize community resources in an
ethical way, as well as how to train field staff, to recognize issues in the home care setting that might warrant the use of community resources.
Program Learning Outcome: Participants will actively engage in the learning activity and identify ethical issues associated with using community resources
and ways to recognize issues in the home care setting that might warrant the use of community resources.
