Program Description: We commit to caring for our community’s most vulnerable citizens.
We often don’t realize just how vulnerable they are until we come across someone who’s been taken advantage of or abused by someone they trusted.
As Administrators and advocates for our clients’ general wellbeing we must educate ourselves, our staff, and our community about detecting and
preventing elder fraud and abuse. This program reviews some of the most common schemes to which our seniors may be subjected and discover how to
identify these situations so we can detect, stop, report, and prevent further victimization.

Reporting of Perceived Bias
Bias, as defined by the American Nurses Credentialing Center’s Commission on Accreditation (ANCC COA/LSNA) is the “tendency or inclination to cause partiality, favoritism, or influence.”
Commercial bias may occur when a CNE activity promotes one or more product(s) (drugs, devices, services, software, hardware, etc.). This definition is not all inclusive and participants may use
their own interpretation in deciding if a presentation is biased. The ANCC COA is interested in the opinions and perceptions of participants at approved CNE activities, especially in the presence
of actual or perceived bias in continuing education. Therefore, ANCC invites participants to access their “ANCC Accreditation Feedback Line” to report any noted bias or conflict of interest in the
education activity. The toll free number is 1(866) 262-9730.
