Nitpicking: Headlice Helpline self paced online (2 hours/.2 CEU) is a IACET CEU: Credits - 0.2 learning event.
Does the thought of head lice make you itch and scratch? Of course it does! Are you aware that the American Academy of Pediatrics has some new recommendations as of 2016 regarding the exclusion of children with nits from schools? Does everyone with head lice experience symptoms? Families and children experiencing head lice, as well as classrooms need support along with treatment options that dispel the myths and misconceptions regarding head lice. Attend this learning event to help support children, families and classrooms and stop the nitpicking!
Participants attending this learning event will be able to describe the ways head lice are spread, the stages of head lice growth, common indicators of head lice infestation, and describe treatment and supports for children and families facing head lice.
Course requirements to earn the CEU certificate include attending the online session, watching video vignettes, completing interactive activities, and passing a post knowledge assessment with a score of 90% or higher (multiple attempts allowed).
Registration always open!
A bit about Karen Darby Karen is originally from a small town in northern West Virginia, she has 1 sister who currently lives in Orlando, Florida. Karen lives in Kings Mountain, North Carolina, which is in Cleveland County. Karen had a very small, private wedding ceremony on 2-22-2022, it was a Tuesday! She kept the name Karen Darby, for professional purposes. Karen has no children of her own but enjoys spending time with her husband's grown children and grandchildren. Karen's hobbies include anything outdoors, but at the top of her list are: swimming, walking hiking, biking, flower gardening, painting, and she is willing to try anything outdoors at least once. She is however, afraid of heights. In her spare time, Karen teaches an adult swimming class for the City of Shelby, she is a certified Aqua Fitness Instructor and certified Lifeguard and certified as a CPR/First Aid/AED instructor. Karen finds that she volunteers in the community and senior center on a frequent basis, but she loves to spend time with her dog!
