Benefits of Assisted Living Training Videos for Elder Care Staff
Eldercare is an intricate element that is expected of the staff members working at an assisted living facility or home care program. When lives matter and no fine detail can afford to be overlooked, training your staff to care for elderly patients at your assisted living facility or at their home with assisted living training videos is encouraged. In fact, assisted living training videos have several powerful benefits including extended understanding, improved recognition, stronger ability to recall the content long-term, and the ability to save company time while onboarding new staff. We’re reviewing some of the top benefits of assisted living training videos here.

Improved Recall
Assisted living training videos to provide eldercare staff with a vast amount of knowledge in a very short time — but what good is knowledge if it is not easily remembered (or if it cannot be recalled at all)?
Training videos for eldercare staff have a higher chance of long-term understanding and recall for the various content that is taught within the video. In fact, video content is recalled up to 90% compared to just 20-30% of what is taught via written text. When lives matter, using video to train staff to take care of elderly clients at your assisted living facility is a must.
Company TIme Saving
The use of training videos in your onboarding steps can be quite powerful as well. Assisted living training videos that help employees to onboard new staff members can save extensive amounts of time over traditional onboarding or new hire training. The use of video allows for the delivery of significantly more information in a much shorter timeframe than written content can be delivered. Videos also deliver information more quickly than in-person training.
Additionally, assisted living training videos save the time that would otherwise be required to bring upper-level staff and those involved in new employee training together to offer such educational support. Staff training no longer requires management to coordinate a time with lower-level staff to provide important educational and onboarding training thus, significant amounts of time can be saved.
Improved Engagement
Videos provide powerful, engaging content for your team. Assisted living training videos allow staff to engage and interact with the content they are learning. Staff can interact with the video content and, when case studies and scenarios training are provided, staff have the power to go through various scenarios while watching their training videos and choose how these scenarios will impact their everyday routines.
Another benefit that comes from using video to train staff is found in the fact that you now have the power to track staff and know what videos they watch, which ones they skip, and how they engage with the content that you shared with them. This is important because it allows you to see where staff seem to be losing interest or which staff have been properly trained on a particular subject and who still might need to work on further training assignments.
