My reminder popped up on my calendar this afternoon reminding me…’It’s time to submit your monthly Therap blog’…
I pondered what I should write about…it seems only obvious that I should write about training your employees to use Therap. After all, today I trained a Therap class…last Friday I presented my annual webinar…on what else but training your staff to use Therap!
We all have our own individual ways of training staff to use Therap. No one way is wrong, or better than another. But we do have the opportunity of improving our way but learning how other agencies train Therap.
At our agency, we have a monthly Therap class. The class last approximately 8 hours. We demonstrate how to enter information, and have our employees practice entering information. For more details on how I train Therap, feel free to go to Therap’s YouTube page and check out the webinar.
That brings me to this question…How does YOUR agency train Therap? What materials, cheat sheets, work sheets, etc. does your agency use during this process? Who does the Therap training, and how were they selected? What policies do you have in place in regards to Therap documentation?
Please share with the rest of us, so we can all get a little better!
Here at The Arc of Anchorage, we have a 2 hour Therap course for all new hires that covers the basics of Therap use – T-Logs, GERs, ISP Data, and S-Comms. The following day is the second half of this course, a 3 hour class that focuses entirely on how to write quality and compliant ISP Data and why.
When I need to train staff on something specific, we offer that in a different series. I also sometimes sit in on program meetings in order to pass new info along.
