Skin Fair Materials and Resources
Skin Fair is a term given to an interactive learning event for healthcare workers. It is designed to reinforce previously learned information, introduce new concepts, and give evidence-based background for doing what we do in caring for residents. The intention is for the event to be delivered in a fun and interactive environment. The participant assumes the role of the resident to experience, as close as possible, what they may feel or go through when trying to accomplish activities of daily living. This experience can increase the empathy of each staff person in understanding the impact of receiving intimate personal care. Below you will find the tools necessary to aid you in planning a Skin Fair in your community. Please contact a member of the KFMC Nursing Home Team if questions arise.
