Ft. Lauderdale, FL (PRWEB) April 27, 2004 -- Outreach Senior Healthcare, Inc.
a proven leader in functional rehabilitation announces a new benefit for its
therapists, www.OutreachUniversity.com. The customized Learning Management
System was created by Care2Learn, a national provider of online training and
continuing education for healthcare professionals. Outreach Senior Healthcare
and Care2Learn have developed an online solution with the functionality of
educating, training, testing, reporting and tracking training of speech,
physical and occupational therapy staff.
“The online university is a
great tool for enhancing our continuing education and training efforts
throughout Florida as we grow and change in the marketplace. It helps to create
efficiencies throughout our education program without over-utilizing limited
resources. We will offer a blended learning model, with live training for
hands-on education and online learning for just-in-time training and mandatory
compliance”, says Mary Ann Porter, Vice President of Clinical
Operations.
Outreach’s customized e-learning solution gives therapists
access to Care2Learn’s accredited courses for their therapists. “This is a
wonderful benefit for the staff. We have provided for them at no cost the
opportunity to obtain contact hours online at www.OutreachUniversity.com 24 hours daily, 7 days a week,”
says Ms. Porter.
“E-Learning and training offers no boundaries for health
care professionals”, says Laura More, one of Care2Learn’s founders. “The
flexibility of the Internet gives the busy healthcare provider a 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.”
