Program Description: There are nearly 20 million veterans in the United States. Thirty percent of those veterans have multiple chronic
conditions that can be managed by the care at home industry. Almost ¼ of the deaths in the United States are veterans which means community providers can play a significant
role in the treatment and education of this distinguished population. By exploring the special needs of veterans and funding sources available, organizations can create a
niche market through the development of a veteran centric specialty program and improve the lives of those that have served our country and communities. This program addresses all
care at home service lines and is applicable to hospice, home health, and private duty agencies.

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.
