Hello All,
This is a late alert regarding a caregiver satellite broadcast
being offered today from noon-2:30pm at the VA.
The OKL VAMC will be an access point for the nationwide, VA sponsored
satellite broadcast on federal programs supporting caregivers. The video
conference room (SPD 6F-105) is reserved for this event from 11am-2:30pm
CST. The program will be simulcast from noon-2:30. I hope that you
find time to join us during any part of the program. Details from the
coordinating center are below. The best way to find room 6F-105 is to use
the west elevators near the Pizza place inside the VA building (rather than the
east elevators near the store).
I will try to be there for the entire 2.5 hours, but it is a
come-and-go situation for most.
Please note that the URL links below beginning with http://vawww... will work with VA-networked
computers only.

Satellite Broadcast: Federal Programs Supporting Caregivers
September 19 @ 1:00 -3:30 PM ET at all VA Medical Centers
This satellite broadcast, which is a joint effort of the Administration on
Aging, CMS, and VA, presents a wonderful opportunity for the VA to
partner with community agencies. It would be a great way to network and discuss
ways of working collaboratively to assist our veterans’ caregivers while
also providing CEUs. As VA leaders in health care, please take the initiative
to invite your community partners to join you at your facility for this
important broadcast.
Feel free to share this announcement widely with those that you think might be
interested as we would like to get good participation.

There are several resources available in conjunction with the Caregiver
Broadcast. Attached you will find:
There is an online survey for the Caregiver Broadcast. The survey is a
great source of feedback to let us know what you liked/disliked about the
broadcast and how we can improve future broadcasts. After the broadcast has
aired, please take the time to fill out the survey. The survey can be
found at caregiver satellite broadcast
