REST (Respite Education and Support Tools) Training

The Schmieding Home Caregiver Training Program – Little Rock hosted their annual REST (Respite Education and Support Tools) training on Wednesday, May 4, 2016. Participants included hospice volunteers from Saline County, health care professionals, medical social workers, and other lay persons who wanted to know about RESPITE. Phil Schmidt, founder of Homeality In-home Temporary and Permanent Care, sponsored the appetizing lunch. The Arkansas Lifespan Coalition (Susie Keesling) provided each attendee with a Participant Handbook which can be used to revisit information that was provided during the training. This eight hour event was facilitated by Sheila Robinson, Coordinator of Training.
