Thank you to everyone that responded to my question about upcoming trainings/resources on hospice and nursing homes. Below is a summary of the info that was sent to me, fyi:
-several people suggested contacting your local hospice (for example, kanawhahospice.org for Charleston) - most agencies will gladly do an inservice or provide information
