We have been shifting how we do business at Elevate Health so that we may continue to support the health care professionals we work with every day. We’re pleased to share that on March 19th the Elevate Health Care Continuum Network team presented the first virtual Health Homes training for our state.
We have been shifting how we do business at Elevate Health so that we may continue to support the health care professionals we work with every day. We’re pleased to share that on March 19th the Elevate Health Care Continuum Network team presented the first virtual Health Homes training for our state.
This training was previously scheduled to be in-person, and amidst the recent need to physically distance ourselves Elevate Health responded by quickly putting together a virtual training, in conjunction with our partners at the Washington State Department of Social and Health Services, and the Washington State Health Care Authority.
Care coordinators in virtual attendance shared their gratitude and positive feedback:
The instructors in this course went above and beyond to make sure we understood the materials.” “It helped me out a lot, personally. Without it being online I wouldn't have been able to complete the training due to having kids at home until the end of next month.” “I really appreciate the coordination that was put together to make this possible in such a short period of time. And you made it possible for us to get our training. THANK YOU!
