Hospice & Palliative Care

Providing specialized care to individuals facing life threatening illness and those approaching end of life requires a compassionate, knowledgeable staff

Committing to Quality

Relias can help you overcome the challenges facing your organization to achieve your goals.

Creating a Culture of Quality

Creating a culture of quality starts with hiring the best staff.

Once a candidate is hired, effective onboarding is critical not only to performance, but also to show the employee that the organization is vested in their success. To navigate this process, Relias offers a three-pronged approach:

Assessments

Pre and post-hire Prophecy® assessments enable organizations to identify and hire the best fit for the position and predict future success.

Personalized Onboarding

Customizing onboarding to meet the specific needs of a new hire makes the experience more interesting and relevant, enabling them to contribute quickly and effectively.

Engaging Content

Providing engaging training, created by subject matter experts, enables a learner to more readily recall and apply information in their everyday activities, ensuring better quality of care.

Lowering Costs and Staying Competitive

With declining reimbursements and increased costs, competition among organizations grows.

24-7 Acceess

Choosing cost-saving options can be critical to the survival of your hospice or palliative care program. Because alleviating the suffering of patients with unresolved pain and other symptoms can’t wait, you need a plan of action to stay ahead of competition now.

Educate Efficiently

Online training reduces costs associated with in-person training, such as travel, overtime and time spent creating training, potentially saving you up to 50% on common training expenses.

Manage Effectively

Keep your team where they belong – at the bedside of your patients! Keep all your staff, whether remote, weekend or evening, on track with 24/7 access to the information they need to help patients.

Engage Employees

Great care comes from an engaged workforce. Encouraging self-care and incorporating innovative training technology, such as BrainSparks®, increases employee engagement, resident satisfaction, and your bottom line.

Partners

We work with industry-leading partners to ensure our training meets your training needs.
