American Home Companion, Inc. - Reno, NV
“Seniors Helping Seniors® Fox Valley began using CTU for the first time this year and it has been a change enthusiastically welcomed by our Caregivers. They appreciate being able to now self-direct their own training and learn new and updated material created for home service non-medical caregivers. The training provides both content that can be read by the Caregivers at their own pace and many instructional videos. Caregivers found this training much easier to navigate than the previous training used. The training can be stopped and restarted again without losing credit. Caregivers are enrolled for a full year so they have the advantage of returning to the training to review material and additional training videos. CTU works on all forms of technology and support is available by email or phone call although our Providers have had no technical issues as they have had in the past training. Interact with the staff and you will find them accessible, knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. It is also a refreshing change for the Training Director in your company. I highly recommend that if you are in the market for a new training program then you should experience the difference that Caregiver Training University offers. We certainly are glad we did!” Carol Tanquary, Office Manager, Seniors Helping Seniors - Batavia, IL

But what does this mean for staff?
Regardless of their seniority, Medicaid and private duty caregiver staff must manage their time wisely. Complicated training interfaces are a thing of the past with Caregiverlist. You won't need to waste time reminding caregivers to take their training.
We offer two-click enrollment for courses that can be accessed on smartphones and tablets. Carry out training anywhere, anytime, and fit continuing education for caregivers around busy schedules.
The Importance of Caregiver Staff Training
Investing in your staff and committing to continuing education improves your ability to attract top talent and deliver superior care. While many companies are experiencing the challenges of the shortage of qualified, experienced caregivers across the country, senior care companies who train and reward their caregiving staff develop a regular pathway for professional caregiver employees to join their teams.
Committing your company to the continuing development of caregiving skills and rewarding them with certificates enables you to better compete and attract the best of the best. Recognizing caregiver certification better attracts and retains caregivers and elevates your brand.
Caregiver education training programs go beyond compliance with state mandates laws and training regulations by franchises and corporations. Providing training branded in your name, regardless of state training regulations, modernizes care and increases your standards of service to both caregivers and senior care clients.
Caring for those who need more assistance with activities of daily living requires specific skills. In addition, privacy requirements that must be maintained by caregivers do require deeper training in order to be upheld. As you build a team of highly trained caregivers, you raise the standards for senior care across the industry and train your community on the value of senior care career paths.
Investing in caregiver staff training allows you to future-proof your organization from an agency perspective. Talented caregivers will want to work for companies that invest in them. They will show their certificates to their friends and family which helps build your brand name and promote your company. Support your staff and be rewarded by better care outcomes and high staff retention.
Because our training platform is actually called "Caregiver Training University", caregivers feel empowered to become trained and are grateful for the experience. Read our real caregiver reviews.
Purchasing caregiver education training programs deliver return-on-investment, along with recognition and fulfillment for your caregiving staff. This helps you to become the top company in your market.

How to Train Caregivers for Your Agency
Caregiverlist created training that matches your senior care company's state laws. Usually, there will be different training required for new-hire caregivers prior to their first assignment and then consistent training hours for annual caregiver training courses. Caregiverlist truly "cares for the caregiver" with all e-mail communication and a learning management system which makes it very easy for caregivers to log-in to their training. The training concepts or topics, are listed and the caregiver will go to the next section when they have reviewed all the content but always be able to see all of the topics.
Training requirements are confusing almost always. Caregiverlist simplifies the process by providing you with outlines of the training courses and shows how the classes exactly match the state laws.
The Caregiverlist training course library will contain the right topics for each year of training for Medicaid caregivers, Private Duty Caregivers and Assisted Living or RAL caregivers assisting seniors with daily activities.
We will onboard your staff and our entire team has experience as caregivers. Your home care agency may call us anytime for assistance. We have long-term customers and are able to share success stories with you and provide marketing tools along with your state-mandated senior care training.
Why do senior care companies tell us we offer the senior care industry's best training?

- Staffing Evolution – Just because you’re hiring new staff doesn’t mean that you need to enroll all over again. Purchase our class passes in bundles. They never expire and can be used to meet the needs of your expanding business.
- Permanent Login Access – Simple one-click renewal for training enrollment means you only need to register once. For more information on training caregivers for your agency, get in touch with us now.
Medicaid Caregiver Staff Training
Medicaid services assist low-income Americans who meet strict qualification requirements, based on no assets and needing care, to receive in-home senior care services. These home care programs have been given specific names along with the names for the trained caregivers providing the care, such as Home Health Aide, or HHA. An HHA must complete specific senior care training that has been mandated in each state in the U.S.A. and usually will be a minimum of 12-hours of non-skilled and clinical course training. Anyone who shows they are dependable and caring may become a Medicaid caregiver. The training will be given to them by the Medicaid senior care company.
Review below some of the Medicaid-specific topics that are included in the training courses:
- Case Notes – Caregivers providing care to Medicaid seniors must take more detailed case notes than conventional caregivers for reporting purposes. The system is different, so our course familiarizes your staff with the latest requirements.
- Abuse and Neglect – State governments pay extra attention to senior abuse and neglect. Our modules make this aspect of the job a priority to ensure your agency’s team remains compliant.
- Recertification Help – HHAs are required to be retrained/recertified annually. Our courses support staff in the recertification process.
These modules are specific to Medicaid, but our courses also provide all the necessary training for new HHAs, including hygiene procedures, infection control, and essential listening skills.
Check out our Medicaid-specific caregiver staff training bundles for more information on the most comprehensive HHA courses in the business.
Private Duty Caregiver Staff Training
Private duty caregivers treat seniors within their own homes. Your staff help seniors retain their independence while keeping them safe. They also provide respite to other caregivers.
The nature of entering a private home to provide care changes the dynamic and requires expert guidance and support. Our private duty training packages provide staff with all the skills they need to deliver care with dignity and respect.
Some examples of the modules covered include:
- Fall Prevention – Creating and maintaining a safe environment is essential for protecting seniors round the clock. Staff will learn about how to reduce falls and accidents in any home.
- Communication Skills – Asking open-ended questions, conflict resolution, and detecting red flags are just some examples of excellent communication skills. Your team will learn all about it in this module.
- Hygienic Environments – In a senior’s own home, your staff must go the extra mile to ensure that their homes remain hygienic.
Get best-in-class training that meets all state-specific requirements for private duty caregivers. Our innovative, blended approach to training for caregivers in the private sector is guaranteed to help your organization provide a higher standard of home care.
Residential Assisted Living Caregiver Staff Training
Our assisted living caregiver training helps your new hires to overcome the unique obstacles associated with assisted living facilities. When operating in a unique “home” environment with other seniors, the skillset required to run a care home effectively changes.
From dietary specialists to nurses, caregivers in this environment must develop an all-around knowledge of various subjects to fulfill the needs of residents.
Some examples of the modules your team will cover in our training courses include:
- Medication Training for Caregivers – Daily medications for various conditions require care and attention to keep residents safe. Receive a complete course on how to manage medications within assisted living facilities.
- Healthcare Laws – Different healthcare laws apply to formal assisted living facilities. Get the knowledge required to ensure your staff remains compliant with Federal and state laws.
- Specialized Operating Systems – Spotting common conditions in the elderly, collaborating with other caregivers, and creating a system that prioritizes health and safety are essential components of making a care home work. Train your staff to feel at home in this new environment.
Assisted living caregiver training is crucial for even experienced caregivers switching to this working environment. With a gamut of laws, operations, and residents to negotiate, only Caregiverlist gives you the tools needed to create a team that delivers results.
Caregiver Staff Training and State Laws
The U.S. is unique in that laws are dictated by individual states rather than exclusively by a central government. This can be complicated for an agency in the caregiving business and lead to accidental breaches.
Avoid penalties and fines from your state government by making your team aware of state laws. Understanding state law compliance is even more critical if you operate within multiple states.
Caregiverlist is a training platform designed by those with decades of direct experience. By liaising with senior care professionals across the country, we have developed courses that match with state laws in all 50 states.
Therefore, every course is customized according to where you and your team are based to deliver up-to-date knowledge that protects your staff and the future of your organization.
State law compliance is at the heart of delivering modern care solutions. Eliminate the potential for compliance errors. Sign up for our state-specific class bundles now.
