Compliance education is a critical part of healthcare staff training to improve quality of care, boost staff knowledge and resilience, and reduce risk for the organization. MedBridge compliance courses align with applicable laws and regulations and include oversight by relevant healthcare consultants.
This article provides recommendations for annual compliance training to meet federal regulations. Additional course options are also provided that may be relevant to your organization depending on your patient population.
All 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.
