Inadequate education and difficult work environments have contributed to high staff turnover rates — nearly 50% nationally — and difficulty recruiting new workers. Frequent staff turnover has a negative impact on morale and can affect the standard of care for residents, which may lower occupancy rates.

Creating environments that promote and encourage staff and resident safety requires comprehensive training, which is not always offered to direct-care staff. The challenge of training staff may seem particularly daunting and costly. In fact, training replacement hires is often one of the largest, if not the largest, and most visible direct cost of staff turnover.

In our new whitepaper, “Reduce Costly Staff Turnover and Increase Occupancy Rates with Memory Care Fall Prevention Training,” SafelyYou introduces their new, free training program, SafelyYou University. The newly launched online Fall Champion Training course and In-Service Training Toolkit leverages data and insights from reviewing more than 60,000 fall videos to provide free education for care staff on fall prevention best practices, combined with the person-centered approach needed to meet the unique needs of adults living with Alzheimer’s and dementia.
