Bermuda Long-Term Care Peer Learning Network (BPLN)
The Bermuda Long-Term Care Peer Learning Network (BPLN) is an Age Concern Bermuda initiative dedicated to strengthening the quality, safety, and sustainability of long-term care across Bermuda.
Through affordable annual facility memberships, BPLN provides residential care facilities, nursing homes, and senior care providers with access to expert-led training, professional development opportunities, sector-wide learning events, and collaborative peer engagement. Topics include dementia care, resident safety, infection prevention and control, elder abuse prevention, emergency preparedness, mental health and wellness, and other critical areas of long-term care practice.
Member facilities receive up to three training sessions annually, access to educational resources and sector updates, and recognition as organizations committed to continuous improvement and excellence in care.
By supporting workforce development, knowledge-sharing, and person-centred care, BPLN helps build stronger care environments and enhances the health, dignity, and quality of life of Bermuda's older adults.
