Publisher's Synopsis
Every year, home health aides must satisfy 12 hours of in-service training. With today's irregular, part-time schedules, making sure they complete their required in-services can be a never-ending chore. Now you can satisfy Medicare's annual 12-hour aide in-service requirement without bringing your staff into the office for training.
Home Health Aide On-the-Go In-service provides authoritative, comprehensive, yet easy-to-understand training for self-study or the classroom. As aides need training, simply copy the pages from each lesson as needed. The training is flexible, so aides can learn at their own pace at a time that is convenient for them. Even if they miss your regular in-services they can still get the training they need. Each lesson provides one hour of study on a homecare-specific topic. This 12-lesson volume fulfills one year of Medicare's annual requirement of 12 in-service hours. Each lesson includes:- A clearly written fact sheet about a timely, homecare-specific topic
- A 10-question post-test to measure understanding of the subject matter
- An answer sheet with a place for the instructor's comments and signature
- An illustrative, homecare-specific case study
- Suggested supplemental learning activities
- An attendance log and certificate of completion
- A convenient storage binder is included with your purchase
