Knoxville, TN
(PRWEB) October 13, 2003 -- Housecall Medical Resources, a premiere provider of
home health, IV infusion, respiratory therapy, medical equipment, and hospice
services, announces a new benefit for all employees www.HousecallUniversity.com. The customized Learning
Management System was created by Care2Learn.com, a national provider of online
training and continuing education for healthcare professionals. Housecall
Medical Resources and Care2Learn have developed the online solution with the
functionality of educating, training, testing, reporting and tracking training
of all 2000 plus employees.
“This is a first time venture for
Housecall in automating a blended learning model for our training and
orientation program,” says John Heller, CEO of Housecall Medical Resources. “The
online university is a great tool for enhancing our education and training
efforts at all of our locations as we grow and change in the marketplace. It
helps to create efficiencies throughout our education program without
over-utilizing limited resources. Our Regional Educators will launch our newly
developed orientation program. Then we will continue to offer the classroom or
live sessions for additional relevant materials as needed for our staff.”
Housecall also obtained access to Care2Learn’s accredited courses for
their nurses located in 5 states. “This is a wonderful benefit for our nursing
staff. We have provided for them at no cost the opportunity to obtain contact
hours online at www.HousecallUniversity.com 24 hours daily, 7 days a week,”
says Bill Edwards, VP, Clinical Services for Housecall.
“E-Learning is a
tremendous resource for health care professionals”, said Laura More, one of
Care2Learn.com’s founders. “The flexibility of the Internet gives the busy
healthcare provider an easy, convenient and cost-effective way to stay current
and maintain licensure. Being able to control where, when, and how long the
training/learning takes place is invaluable.” With Housecall University,
Care2Learn now has over 25,000 registered students.
