In-Home Quality Campaign

The goal of the In-Home Quality Campaign is two-fold:

  • increase the knowledge of aides working for in-home agencies
  • decrease the number of non-emergency trips by clients to emergency rooms and hospitals

The training materials were initially part of a national campaign for Home Health agencies and have been modified for use by Missouri In-Home Providers. As new modules are completed, they will be added to this webpage.

There are modules for in-home aides and for in-home nurses. Each module contains teaching points, links, and a post-test.

Several of the modules include links to audio and video educational pieces. In some cases, those links are part of the national campaign and in order to access them, you must follow the directions below. Signing up and accessing the links is entirely voluntary on your part.
