### "Quality Training for Caregivers"

November 18, 2021

5.0

I have had no issues in the 2 years we have been using CareAcademy to onboard our caregivers. They like the training and I believe it is effective for our purposes. I recently took the Annual Caregiving training required by our state and found many useful tidbits myself.

Pros

CareAcademy's course are easy to follow, repetitive, and the modules vary in length and content so the course is engaging until it's over. Quizzes within the courses help caregivers remember the content and many score with 90%-100% passing grades. I like that the caregivers are engaged in home care and not showing training by facility staff. The supervisory models are what our managers aspire to be, and I like that the caregivers are shown the wrong way to do things from time to time which gives them an opportunity to examine their own behaviors.

Cons

The reporting is difficult. I have to export the entire list of people who took classes, then delete and sort to get the information I need. Would love to see a pop-out dashboard with classes completed by caregivers in a certain time period.

The interface was difficult and frankly, the classes were boring

### "Training for In Home Caregiving"

November 22, 2021

5.0

We have streamlined our online training which has saved us time and money.

Pros

CareAcademy is mobile friendly and integrates with Clear Care as a Single Sign On which simplifies the caregivers access to new hire and annual training. We love the ability to add and change curriculums based on the needs of our training requirements. The video library is great as well!

Cons

The ability for an admin to reset the attempts for a caregiver to retake an exam would be great!

### "Trained my team in the creation of purposeful care"

June 26, 2025

5.0

CareAcademy is quite useful when it comes to caregiver preparedness and offers hands-on training, whereas the necessary operations such as class tracking depend on manual data export and require additional administrative effort.

Pros

PowerPacks in CareAcademy allowed me to delegate bite-size refreshers immediately before the caregiver shifts, so the staff remained active. The scenario-based videos were practical and caregivers tend to explain they feel better prepared.

Cons

I was not able to sort classes by date range and needed to export every data manually and clean it in Excel.

### "CareAcademy for home health of non-elderly residents."

November 22, 2021

5.0

I am very happy with the program. The team and developers are making additions, corrections and modifications regularly to make it more widely usable among more than just one population of home health residents.

Pros

The team build was excellent. They listened and geared our build around our specific needs. They also listened to what was not working and the developers are looking into if they are feasible. They have added a number of classes since we began the program and the ease of adding those to our core made it worthwhile. The ability to track training, this is the best feature for administrators.

Cons

Limited report types. Hopefully they will add more of these capabilities soon. Several staff are down as failing classes that they finished going through but did not test for yet. Others show a failing class even if they show a 100%. If the course was reset to allow another try, a code may work better than showing failing. These two issues has cost us a few new hires.

Reason for choosing CareAcademy

I talked with the team, went through a demo and was set up with a account to test the product out. The ease of use, wide variety of classes, price was reasonable and \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] classes.

### "Home Care in-service tracking headaches gone! "

November 16, 2021

5.0

I have been in the home care business for 11 years and this software has been a time-saver for tracking employee trainings as we are in NY state and the requirements change daily.

Pros

CareAcademy makes getting the in-service requirements complete from start to finish in a manner in which the employees love, since they can do it on their own time, and a manner in which we love, as it makes it so easy to track!

Cons

My only con is, although it integrates with our system, when a caregiver completes a training I wish it would put that into ClearCare for payroll as opposed to me having to go back and forth on the day of payroll to see who completed what training. (Maybe the software can do this, and we just don't have it set up! That would be great. We pay 1 hour at minimum wage for each completed training.)

Reason for choosing CareAcademy

CareAcademy had the features we needed the most. It integrated with our system ClearCare and made getting the Caregivers enrolled very easy. Tracking their progress is a breeze and being able to customize the different trainings if need be for each individual based on the type of client they will working with makes the services better than all the rest!

Hi Jessica, we love to hear that CareAcademy has helped your agency accomplish all your in-service needs and that your caregivers are able to complete the training on their own time. We hear your feedback about ClearCare and having the ability to sync completed training into payroll. We're always innovating - so stay tuned as we continue to build out features like this!

### "CareAcademy Training"

November 18, 2021

5.0

We were so lucky to be on the platform before the pandemic started or we would have been at a huge disadvantage. We were able to continue to onboard and train our caregivers remotely and continue to care for our clients. We were so grateful for CareAcademy and their continued support through such a challenging time.

Pros

I like that it thoroughly covers our state training requirements, and is tailored for our employees in our specific industry. It is also cell phone compatible, which was vital for our staff.

Cons

There is nothing I don't like, but I am always excited about new course content being added.

Reason for choosing CareAcademy

I know we looked at several options, and cannot remember their names (which says something right there), but we ultimately chose CareAcademy because it was the most mobile friendly and their team seemed genuinely invested the end user (caregiver) experience.

### "Care Acamedy"

November 17, 2021

4.0

Pros

To view our active caregivers weekly schedule, automatically be able to message caregivers through text & email in their profile

Cons

When we edited an existing shift with a different caregiver, the caregiver rate will not stay as is & will be change automatically to a different rate. We then I to make sure to enter the correct rate for the corresponding client rate.

Response from CareAcademy.com

December 1, 2021

Hi Kim - thank you for the review. CareAcademy is a training and compliance platform that provides quality content to train your direct care team. CareAcademy does not manage caregiver shifts or rates of pay. It's possible you might be referring to a software that you use that integrates with CareAcademy for scheduling. If you have questions about the software, we'd love to help! Please get in touch with our team at your convenience. Thank you!

### "Senior Living"

November 29, 2021

4.0

We liked out sales rep. She was bubbly, answered our questions, kept in contact. Since then our trainer has been blah..

Pros

We love the modules, good information, not too long with many breaks to check knowledge. Actors are believable, good role playing. Content is thought provoking and asks and answers questions along the way.

Cons

Our company wants the ability to show some not all modules in our group setting at General Orientation and allow the new hires to sign off on the modules viewed in a group setting. Care Academy says they can't do that. When we reviewed Career Smart, they could remove the "firewall" so employees could skip to the test. We want that flexibility. We are a Residential Care Facility for the Elderly. We have 5 senior living communities. We are not a home health agency. The modules will apply but they are not exactly 100% applicable to our facility setting.

Reason for choosing CareAcademy

focuses more on a caregiver than a professional RN or LPN. We wanted the 40 hours of California RCFE training.

### "Great Tool"

November 16, 2021

4.0

We did not originally want to utilized e-learning as our primary training tool. We really enjoy seeing our caregivers and want to keep the personal connection with them. When COVID started to become a greater concern, we decided to utilize CareAcademy as a more go to training resource. While we still want to keep our personal connection with our caregivers, I believe we will continue to utilize CareAcademy as a primary training source whether in-person or online.

Pros

I really like the material and the content in the library.

Cons

I would like the flexibility to reorder classes once they are set. I find sometime that the order of classes does not flow from one topic to the other. Two-Way communication with caregivers and storing caregiver training profiles would be very helpful.

Reason for choosing CareAcademy

We were using ClearCare and saw that CareAcademy was an added product we could access to help get us out of a pinch when hiring workers who lived over 20 miles from the office and would possible be reluctant to joining our team because of the driving distance for training.

### "Care Academy Partnership"

November 17, 2021

5.0

Overall we've been really happy with the transition to CareAcademy.

Pros

CareAcademy has been a useful tool. The integration with our scheduling platform is really helpful, as we don't have to create more profiles for caregivers. We simply activate them. The classes are well put together, the library is thorough and well-organized. The user interface is FAR better than our previous provider.

Cons

Some of the aspects of administrator usage are clunky. Assigning groups of classes, the terminology they use, and the way to assign specific classes to specific employees is a bit challenging. It takes some getting used to.
