Compliance education is a critical part of healthcare staff training. It helps your organization improve quality of care, boost staff knowledge and resilience, and reduce risk. MedBridge compliance courses align with applicable laws and regulations and include oversight by relevant healthcare consultants.
This set of compliance courses for staff in hospitals provides annual training recommendations that help meet federal regulations. Additional course options are also provided that may be relevant to your organization depending on your patient population and employee roles.
All of these courses can be delivered to your staff via a Knowledge Track so you can easily assign and track completion. This track can be customized to fit your needs, including adding or removing MedBridge courses or your organization’s custom content.
To add these courses to a Knowledge Track, start building a new Knowledge Track and search for the name of each course. For more information about building Knowledge Tracks, check out Getting Started With the MedBridge LMS.
Please see MedBridge’s compliance catalog for other relevant courses, such as ones that address state-specific topics.
