Upcoming Webcast: New Requirements for Homeless Discharge Planning
Please join us on May 29th at 9 am for an EIAtv presentation on the new requirements for homeless patient discharge planning. This webcast will cover the requirements put in place by SB 1152 Hospital Patient Discharge Process: Homeless Patients which was passed by the legislature last year. Linda Garrett and Andrew Garrett of Garrett Consulting Group, LLC will present information about compliance requirements already in place, as well as those upcoming. If you can’t join us, the webcast will be available on demand following the presentation on EIAtv.
Webcast Series: Website Accessibility
Concerns related to web accessibility have been increasing in recent years. There are 4 major categories of disability types (visual, hearing, motor, and cognitive), each requires certain types of adaptations in the design of web content. However, before you can make your website accessible, you must understand accessibility, be committed to ensuring it, learn how to implement it, and understand legal obligations. Jonathan Whiting, Director of Training for WebAIM will provide a 2 part webcast on Web Accessibility: Introduction to Web Accessibility on June 19 at 9 am and Implementing and Evaluating Accessibility on July 10 at 9 am. If you are not able to attend, both will be available on demand via EIAtv afterwards.
Decision Regarding Retroactivity of SB 1421
SB 1421 requires law enforcement agencies to publicly disclose personnel records for officers who are investigated for police shootings and use of force, and who were found to have committed sexual assault or lied during the course of an investigation. Read about recent court decisions regarding SB 1421 on the EIA blog.
