Cannabis and Older Adults eLearning - Free & Accredited!
The response to our Health Canada funded eLearning modules on cannabis and older adults has been outstanding. The free, MOC and MainPro+ accredited English and French eLearning modules can be accessed through the CCSMH website at ccsmh.ca .
"Cannabis consumption among older adults has been accelerating at a much faster pace than other age groups. Healthcare providers have also reported a gap in knowledge which is why CCSMH has developed the Cannabis and Older Adults e-Learning modules to aid physicians, nurse practitioners, other healthcare providers and healthcare students increase their knowledge and confidence in discussing cannabis with their older patients. The modules are asynchronous and individually accredited, allowing the learner to complete them when convenient and to choose the content that is relevant to their needs." David Conn (Co-Chair CCSMH, Vice-President of Education, Baycrest Professor, Dept of Psychiatry, University of Toronto) This series of 11 individually accredited modules (MOC and Main Pro+) can be accessed through Baycrest’s Learning Management System.
