Carespring Healthcare Management Launches Online University for its employees

Cincinnati, OH August 11, 2003 -- Carespring Healthcare Management, a premiere long- term care company, announces a new benefit for all Carespring employees – an online University at http://www.carespringuniversity.com. The customized Learning Management System was created by Care2Learn.com, a national provider of online continuing education for healthcare providers.

“I remember the first time I took a course with Care2Learn.com and felt immediately that this was a great tool for enhancing our education and training efforts at all of our facilities”, says Barry, Bortz, CEO, Carespring Healthcare Management. “Care2Learn’s wide ranging library of courses and learning management system gives our staff an e-learning resource that is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. We can choose the courses we want and need presented on our own university at Carespring, hosted by Care2learn.”

Over 1300 hours of accredited courses and in-services are available to Carespring Healthcare Management staff with another 300 hours of online training in production by Care2Learn, to be added in upcoming months. The Carespring curriculum contains courses for Nursing Home Administrators, Dietary, Social Work, Nursing, and Certified Nursing Assistants, along with all other non-licensed employees crucial to the success of Carespring’s commitment to its residents.

“E-Learning is a tremendous resource for health care professionals”, said Laura More, one of Care2Learn.com’s founders. “The flexibility of the Internet gives the busy caretaker an easy, convenient and cost-effective way to stay current and maintain licensure. Being able to control where, when, and how long the training/learning takes place is invaluable.” With Carespring University, Care2Learn now has over 21,000 registered students.
