In this article, you’ll find a list of MedBridge courses that can be assigned to your staff to meet Accreditation Commission for Health Care (ACHC) hospice orientation requirements and federal regulations.
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 agency's custom content.
