CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va., June 18 /PRNewswire/ -- The Louisiana Nursing Home Association (LNHA) has teamed with Silverchair Learning Systems as its preferred eLearning provider in an effort to bring its members effective solutions that will help improve their operations and reduce costs.

"The LNHA understands the importance of employee training and the needs to achieve efficiencies in all aspects of our members' operations. That is why we are so pleased to have teamed up with Silverchair Learning Systems," said Joseph A. Donchess, Executive Director of LNHA.

This LNHA-sponsored program will allow LNHA members access to a highly effective, efficient, and affordable turn-key learning program that will deliver, track and report on educational programs for their entire organization. The program provides a complete curriculum of in-service and regulatory courses required by CMS (Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services) and OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration), as well as important resident care topics that specifically address the needs of long-term care providers and their employees. The program can also be customized for their organization to include material specific to your facility.

"We are excited to have LNHA's sponsorship," said Mike Benzian, President of Silverchair Learning Systems. "The Louisiana Nursing Home Association has always been looked upon as a leader in long-term care. As an information and education resource to Louisiana's long-term care providers, they perform a necessary and vital service. They work hard to keep their members informed on the laws and regulations governing the profession and to identify and communicate best practices in order to ensure continued quality improvement in long-term care. We are privileged to have been selected."

"We invite all long-term care, assisted living and other senior care companies to learn more about Silverchair Learning Systems. We truly believe the program will provide a positive learning experience for your employees," noted Mr. Donchess.

LNHA has negotiated very favorable pricing with Silverchair, whereby their learning management system and online training modules are available to LNHA members at a substantial discount.
