Focus on Dementia Certification (FODC)

This special certification course, designed by HHAU and the Huntsman Mental Health Institute, meets the State of Utah's  Dementia  core training requirement of healthcare workers in many settings. Registration is normally $200 per participant. However, as part of an ARPA funding grant obtained by HHAU, one individual from every home health, hospice, and personal care agency in Utah - whether or not they are a member of HHAU - can register and take the material back to share with their agency for free! One person from every HHAU member agency outside of Utah is also eligible to participate. 

Additional participants from HHAU member agencies or University of Utah entities are just $150/person or $1,000 for every 10 people from the same organization (contact admin@hhau.org for special invoicing). Agencies that certify 70% or more of their clinical staff in the program will earn a special designation as a Dementia Care Certified agency with a badge that can be displayed on their website, social media, and marketing material.*

The next course will be administered virtually, with an exam administered afterward to obtain certification. Viewing of each class is required to complete the course. However, if a participant is not able to attend any of the classes live, they will have 2 weeks to view the recording.
