Portland Community College | Portland, Oregon Portland Community College

Welcome!

My name is Catherine Hutchison, RN and the instructor for your class GRN 172, known by the DHS as Ensuring Quality Care (EQC).  This class is 6 days long and your attendance is required for all.

There is no text book.  The power point I show, is the only material close to a book.  You need to have a copy of it in each Adult Foster Care Home.  To do this, I will assist you in downloading a copy.  DO NOT print it out.  You will be wasting your money.  It is close to 1500 pages, and is in the process of being updated, one section at a time.  Unless you wait for the finished product, you will have to re-print new sections.

I have merged all of the sections into one file.  On the DHS site, you can find the sections separately, and in alphabetical order. Not the order in which I teach.  It is very time consuming.

You can access the material at:   https://transfernow.net/6028nfuc94ct     using the password:  GRN172

All other materials will be discussed and/or given to you in class.
