Mandatory In-Service Training

Must be completed within the first 30 days of hire and annually thereafter (usually by June 30)..

Effective January 2009, the test is offered in four formats, each one designed for a specific audience. HSLT staff will take either Test A or, if you also work at Highland, Test D. You may choose to study the accompanying materials first (available in Blackboard) or, you may go ahead and take the test, without studying. However, you must pass with a score of at least 90%. If you do not pass the test, you must review the training material to ensure full understanding of the topics and then attempt the test again.

The method for accessing the training material, and accessing and taking the test, is through Blackboard. Follow these Instructions for Blackboard Online Program - Mandatory In-service Education Program.

For your information, the four test options are:

1. Test A - for everyone regardless of duties or position, who does not have patient care responsibilities, does not enter a patient room, and does not work at Highland in addition to URMC-Strong. This test contains all the general topics (e.g., URMC-SMH Fire Safety, Code of Ethics).

2. Test B – for everyone who has patient care responsibilities and/or enters a patient room but does not work at Highland in addition to URMC-Strong. This test contains all the topics in test A plus the patient care related topics (e.g., URMC-SMH Fire Safety, Code of Ethics, DNR, MOLST).

3. Test C – for everyone who has patient care responsibilities, enters a patient room, and works at HH as well as URMC-SMH; this test contains all the topics in tests A and B plus the HH addendum. (e.g., URMC-SMH Fire Safety, Code of Ethics, DNR, MOLST; HH Conflict of Care procedures, HH fire codes)

4. Test D - for everyone who does not have patient care responsibilities but who also works at HH in addition to URMC-Strong; this test contains all the topics in test A plus the HH addendum. (e.g., URMC-SMH Fire Safety, Code of Ethics; HH Conflict of Care procedures, HH fire codes).
