Cybersecurity in Respiratory Care for SNFs

This program provides essential information security training specifically for healthcare providers operating in Skilled Nursing Facilities (SNF) and long-term care settings. Focused on the unique requirements of respiratory care professionals, the curriculum connects data protection directly to patient outcomes and clinical safety. Participants will learn to identify common cyber threats such as social engineering and ransomware that can disrupt critical respiratory support services. The course covers federal regulatory requirements, including Health Industry Cybersecurity Practices (HICP), and outlines specific protocols for protecting electronic protected health information (ePHI) while maintaining high standards of clinical service in the post-acute healthcare continuum.
