Gowns and Gloves is the name of the nursing home soap opera that is embedded in the first two learning modules. The embedded video is an entertaining way to convey important information, and the soap opera episodes with professional actors engage viewers and create some buzz about the modules.
The objective of the Gowns and Gloves Challenge was to maximize the number of nursing home employees that complete Modules 1 and 2 of the Enhanced Education of Infection Prevention in Nursing Homes program. Participating nursing homes had from March through July to get as many employees to view the modules as possible, with the winning nursing home to receive a party with cake and balloons!
