Engaging multimedia format
The program is media rich and truly interactive. Users respond to situations, make choices, watch video clips, and become actively involved in the material—a very effective way to learn and remember information.Extremely user-friendly
Staff members without computer experience find the program very easy to use.Available online 24 hours a day, 7 days a week
Staff can use the program on their own and at their own pace, making it particularly convenient for training night, weekend, and part-time staff members.Easy to stop and start again
The program tracks user progress automatically. This optimizes opportunities for training and provides the flexibility needed to meet unplanned caregiving needs.Appropriate for classroom training, too
The many video clips, interactions, and exercises provide excellent examples for and support to instructor-led sessions.Can be used over and over
As long as the facility license is active, staff can revisit the program as often as they’d like to renew skills. Supervisors can also use the program to continually log on to give on-floor training to new staff members.Administrative tracking
Track the progress of each user individually and compile aggregate reports for documentation.Unlimited-user access: Train all staff for one low price

Our training program makes use of video (movies) and audio (sound). This typically requires a high-speed (DSL/Cable/T1/T3) connection to the Internet. If you are using the training program from work, it is likely that you are using a high-speed Internet connection. If you are using the training program from home and need to reconnect to the Internet each time you use it, you probably have a dial-up connection to the Internet and you may experience longer wait times and delays to load the audio and video. A high-speed connection is recommended for the CARES program, but a dial-up connection will function.In addition, animations and other interactive content included in this instructional program require Flash® Player. Many web browsers come installed with Flash Player, but you may need to upgrade it from time to time as Adobe® makes improvements and as websites and online programs you use update their content. In order to ensure that you are able to take full advantage of our training programs, please install the latest version of the free Flash Player software.
