Module 1 - Cultural Competency in the Healthcare Setting

Cultural issues are actually central in the delivery of health services. This module will explore key concepts that determine cultural competency and provide insight to help you become a culturally competent healthcare professional. Under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, healthcare providers who are reimbursed by health insurance plans must provide cultural competency training to their employees.

This module is designed to meet the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) compliance training requirements for certain medical professionals. This course is intended for Medicare Parts C and D plan Sponsors’ employees, governing body members, and their first-tier, downstream, and related entities (FDRs).

Module 3 - HIPAA Privacy, Security and HITECH for Nursing Workforce

Compliance with the HIPPA law is essential for any business that comes in contact with protected health information (PHI). This module informs the learner about HIPAA Privacy, Security, HITECH and what to do if there is a breach notification. 

Action Learning

Vado e-learning courses help you to "learn by doing". Applying action learning and the "70 : 20 : 10" model for learning and development (70% of learning comes from challenging assignments, 20% from developmental relationships and 10% from coursework/training), Vado courses are designed to leverage the all-important 70% so that you can learn through action, experience and knowledge application. During the course you can expect to be asked to "break off" to undertake related tasks, try things out for real and reflect on the experience.

Features

Built to meet the way most people learn (on the job), each Vado course provides learners with tutorial videos, a course 'Introduction Video', downloadable job aids, and an exercise to perform on the job to practice and build the desired skill. With mobile responsive courses designed to work on any mobile device and any screen size, learners will be able to develop anytime, anywhere, and when the learner is ready.
