The role of training in improving the recruitment and retention of direct-care workers in long-term care. Paraprofessional Healthcare Institute & The Institute for the Future of Aging Services. January 2005.
This paper provides a detailed overview of federal and state training requirements for direct-care workers, examines the costs involved, and examines what is known about the impact of training on retention and quality of care. The authors suggest questions that policymakers, educators, and other stakeholders may wish to explore when considering how to implement effective direct-care training programs.
