DALLAS—Axxess announced it has launched Caregiver University as part of its training and certification program. Axxess said this free material provides training for both caregivers and family members around the world to enhance their skills and confidence in delivering care at home.
Caregiver University features more than 40 courses designed to equip caregivers with practical knowledge and non-medical skills they need to provide quality care. Topics covered include post-hospital care essentials that support healing at home, understanding Medicare, managing burnout, setting boundaries and navigating family dynamics. Axxess said these trainings are designed to promote better health outcomes and aim to help reduce hospital readmissions, leading to higher patient satisfaction.
“Caregivers are the heart and soul of care at home,” said Tammy Ross, executive vice president of professional services at Axxess. “The devotion from caregivers makes it possible for people to experience the dignity, comfort and healing that comes from receiving care in their own home. As a former CNA and family caregiver, I understand the profound impact of this work. Through Caregiver University, Axxess is equipping caregivers with the skills and support to do what they love.”
