Proper Training: No one can afford to learn from trial and error
Today I wanted to talk to you about the importance of training on new equipment. You could have the best equipment possible, and it may not perform how you expect it to unless you how to use it properly. Total Home Access Solutions offers on-site training for people with our equipment once it’s installed. We train family and professional caregivers in how to get the best use of our equipment. Even experienced professional caregivers benefit from training on new equipment. We cover how the equipment works, practice using it, and cover basic troubleshooting and maintenance. This takes time on our part compared to services that simply drop ship or just delivery and hand you the owner's manual. We think it is worth it. You can't afford to learn from trial and error when you are using equipment in healthcare.
We love to participate as team members with our client's and their care givers. For example, in this video we are working in one of our client's home with her care staff from Prestige Premium Homecare in Omaha, 402-933-1694, on how to use a portable ceiling lift from SureHands Lift and Care systems. The SureHands system is not hard to use, but the person being lifted and the caregiver benefit from learning good techniques and from understanding how the equipment works. During training, even people who have used lifts before learned some things that were unique to using this type of lift system, techniques that were specific to this client, and methods of working in her bedroom and bathroom needed to work around furniture and fixtures. We believe that our training has helped make safe transfers even more comfortable for the person being lifted and the staff working with them.
Please, share the news and share the video! Proper training with equipment after it is installed is just as important as selecting the right equipment in the first place. Thanks and have a great day!
