The Most Economical Way for LTC Facilities to Meet Nurse Aide Inservice Requirements

Long-term care (LTC) facilities face an ongoing challenge: providing the required 12 inservices per year for their nurse aides and caregivers, as mandated by CMS. These inservices are essential for maintaining compliance, improving staff competency, and ensuring the highest standard of care. But how can facilities deliver high-quality, engaging education without breaking the budget?

The answer is Pedagogy Education’s Facility Nurse Aide and Caregiver Inservice Membership—a cost-effective, flexible, and comprehensive solution.

What Is the Facility Nurse Aide and Caregiver Inservice Membership?

This membership gives LTC facilities access to Pedagogy Education’s extensive library of online inservice courses, specifically designed for nurse aides and caregivers. Facilities can choose courses based on their staff’s educational needs, ensuring that the training is relevant, timely, and impactful.

Key features include:

• Flexible Course Selection: Facilities can choose from a wide range of topics, selecting 10–15 contact hours per staff member for the year.
• Annual Access: Each staff member enrolled in the membership has full access to the courses for one year.
• Instant Completion: Staff complete courses online at their own pace, take the assessments, and receive certificates of completion immediately.

Why This Membership Is the Most Economical Choice

Compared to purchasing individual inservice courses or hiring external trainers, the membership model offers substantial cost savings. Pricing is simple and scales with the size of your team:

• 5–10 staff members: $40 per staff member/year
• 11–20 staff members: $35 per staff member/year
• 21–50 staff members: $30 per staff member/year
• 50–200 staff members: $25 per staff member/year

This means a facility can train its entire staff on up-to-date, high-quality education without worrying about escalating costs.
