We could have written an article about how important it is to arrange regular training for your care team. But as a professional care manger you already know why it’s so vital – the issue is often finding the time.
Staff training is just one of many plates that you have to keep spinning so that your organisation runs safely and smoothly. It’s not easy to keep up with changing regulations or to continuously plug skills and compliance gaps, or to ensure that clients consistently get the care they need.
What you need is a better way to keep the staff training plate spinning so that it needs less of your time and attention.
Is ‘Digital’ the Answer?
Like many things in modern business, part of the answer lies in using better technology. Digital tools are all about automating processes, making life simpler and improving access to information. Care training management is no different.
eBox online learning provides quick and easy access to training records and compliance reporting. Essential training is easy to arrange, easy for staff to take, and easy to track. The eBox app makes staff training even more convenient and allows you to organise all of your training in one place.
