MEPAP 2nd Edition Part 1
Overview
MEPAP 2nd Edition Part One will prepare the Activity Director with a sound base of knowledge in the overall function of an activity department serving residents living in long term care settings. Throughout the course, the student will learn skills and service methods that will enhance quality of life through individualized activity programming as well as training in the required documentation to meet state and federal regulations.
