It’s great to be at the annual conference of American Medical Rehabilitation Providers Association this week. We all know there is a shortage of qualified rehabilitation workers to meet this demand for care. Paving the way for skilled and qualified health workers to deliver that care means addressing equitable training, global competency standards, and career mobility through certification. Did you know? CGFNS is committed to addressing this challenge through the work of our Global Health Workforce Development Institute and our newly launched Certified Global Nurse - Rehabilitation (CGN-R) certification exam and credential. Rehabilitation nurses worldwide can now register to sit for that exam, and Rehabilitation Hospitals and organizations can join our early adopters program to steward their nurses through the program. Find out more at AMRPA 2024. Come meet with Julia To Dutka, who leads our Institute, in Booth # 404.  #nurse #nursing #rehabilitation #rehabcare #rehabnurse #rehabnursing #physicaltherapy #occupationaltherapy #speechtherapy #amrpa

An estimated 2.4 billion people worldwide need ongoing rehabilitation care, and in many cases, those patients need more than one therapist to recover from injury and manage long-term disability. And there is a shortage of qualified rehabilitation workers to meet this demand for care. Paving the way for skilled and qualified health workers to deliver that care means addressing equitable training, global competency standards, and career mobility through certification. We’re looking forward to exploring all of this and more at the upcoming annual conference of the American Medical Rehabilitation Providers Association conference in Miami (Oct 27-30). Learn more about our newly launched certification exam for nurses: Certified Global Nurse - Rehabilitation by attending our session below and finding us in Booth # 404. #nurse #nursing #rehabilitation #rehabcare #rehabnurse #rehabnursing #physicaltherapy #occupationaltherapy #speechtherapy

Have you watched Episode 3 of Care Anywhere yet? Hit that pause button and check it out.    The goal of our Care Anywhere podcast is to focus on "global health workforce development." Nothing sits more at the epicenter of that goal than talking to organizations who are truly investing knowledge, innovation, people and funds into building workforce capacity in nations that need it most. The Massachusetts General Hospital Center for Global Health is doing just that and with inspiring and remarkable results. Leveraging the skills, leadership, and experience of their own nursing workforce, MGH is providing advanced skills training, scholarships, and leadership development for nurses in countries like Uganda.    Mary Sebert, Nursing Director for these MGH programs sits down with Care Anywhere host Lea Sims to talk about how her career uniquely prepared her to spearhead these initiatives, how the programs operate and are funded, and how powerfully successful that have been.    It's a powerful example of "raising all boats" across our global health ecosystem. Don't miss it.    Link to episode in comments.    #podcast #healthpodcast #nursingpodcast #healthcare #workforcedevelopment #alliedhealth #globalhealth
