Available through the Caregiverlist Caregiver Training University, the Senior Caregiver Training Course is compiled to fulfill all required first-year training outlined in Article 8.1796.44 of California’s Home Care Consumer Protection Act.
The training consists of 5 hours of orientation and safety training prior to working with a client, and 5 hours of annual core competency training, which is required for new in-home caregivers, effective January 1, 2016.
The training can be completed online, and is also smartphone and tablet-friendly, according to a media release from Caregiverlist.
Via Caregiverlist, caregivers receive 24/7 access to course sections, tip sheets, and quizzes, in a digital format, allowing them to study at their own pace and on their own schedule.
After finishing the course, caregivers then take a 36-question exam, on which they must score 75% to pass.
Professional caregivers may purchase the course online for $59 and senior care companies may purchase bundles of training class passes to train their caregiver employees on their own customized portal, the release adds.
