Classroom Training

Do you prefer to learn in a classroom style or online?  We can provide you with an opportunity to do it either way.  Research has shown that people have their own unique learning style so we work with you to meet that need--or perhaps you can't break away during the day.  We even send trainers into the field to help you in our client's homes.  The learning really never stops as each client is different and none of us can really say-"I've seen it all".  

Classroom style learning covers all of the basics of caregiving that allow you to get up and running with your clients.  Both online and classroom learners work with our nurse.  The nurse checks off your skill competencies and helps hone those skills to the next level.  One benefit of classroom style training is meeting the staff and starting to develop good relationships.  

 

On-Line Training and Recognition

Our Comfort Keepers works with Care Academy to provide training to applicants and current Comfort Keepers.  Applicants can take courses designed to help them meet our requirements for training.  This is especially helpful if you cannot attend our 2-day training program--although you still need to check off with the nurse.  Care Academy also will help you with continuing education which may lead to other roles at Comfort Keepers or within the healthcare field.

The modules offered by Comfort Keepers are listed below:

  • Care Skills
  • Care of an Older Person
  • Dementia Care
  • Work Experience
  • Care Support
  • Plans of Care
  • Disabilities in seniors
  • Palliative and Hospice Care
  • Safety & Health at Work

Comfort Keepers has annual recognition of the very best Caregivers from our organization of over 25,000 Caregivers.  This award is given to the Comfort Keepers that stand out from the crowd in the way they provide care and compassion for their clients and team.  We have had 2 national winners from our office in Anoka!
