CareAcademy’s mission is to upskill and prepare direct care workers of all types to meet the growing demand for home-based care serving older adults across the post-acute care continuum. The partnership with Wild Iris Medical Education will expand its offering to include continuing education to help individuals maintain their licenses in nursing. With many direct care workers working long hours in care settings during the pandemic, CareAcademy’s mobile-friendly and on-demand training on its platform further improves accessibility for healthcare workers during this crisis and beyond.
