Care2Learn, Inc., the leader in online continuing education and training for post-acute healthcare providers, has launched an important course to help healthcare facilities meet CDC recommendations for H1N1 training. The new interactive online course educates healthcare professionals in outpatient settings and medical first responders on CDC-compliant action steps for managing an increased demand for services during a novel H1N1 influenza outbreak.
The latest series of training recommendations from the CDC, “Interim Guidance on Infection Control Measures for 2009 H1N1 Influenza in Healthcare Settings,” states that all healthcare personnel should receive training on influenza prevention and the risks for complications of influenza. Care2Learn’s new course, “H1N1 Influenza Outbreak: Planning and Response for Healthcare Professionals and First Responder Personnel,” teaches healthcare staff what they need to know about H1N1 in 2 hours of online instruction − saving hours of trying to search through government websites for relevant information. Because the training is 100% online, students can access the training at any time, on their schedule.
The course is recommended for healthcare professionals that work in physician and dental offices, urgent care centers, health clinics, school clinics, ambulatory surgical centers, and mental health facilities. It is also being suggested for all EMS and medical first responder personnel including firefighters and law enforcement first responders.
The course is authored by Dr. John Freitas, a board-certified physician with over 20 years of family practice experience and an extensive background in training. It combines the latest authoritative guidance from the CDC and Department of Health with a variety of games and activities that provide the learner with the ability to apply the information that they are learning in a safe environment. The online reporting features available from Care2Learn allow administrators to easily track which of their staff members are in compliance with this essential training.
