Healthcare Compliance Courses Targeted to Sales Representatives for Safer OR and Better Service

Healthcare Compliance Courses Targeted to Sales Representatives for Safer OR and Better Service

Maestro eLearning, founded by former medical sales reps and sales trainers, introduces online healthcare compliance courses custom-designed to help health care industry representatives assist in creating a safer operating room while providing exemplary customer service.

Kalamazoo, MI (PRWEB) February 5, 2009

Maestro eLearning is rolling out online healthcare education courses designed especially for medical device and pharmaceutical representatives. The former sales reps and sales trainers who founded Maestro use their experience to craft compliance courses that meet the specific needs of a sales representative.

"We've developed these courses using real life experiences. I wish I had received training like this before I entered the operating room. I could have avoided many frustrating and embarrassing mistakes," says Maestro's founder, Josh Little, a former sales rep and training manager for Stryker and Pfizer.

Sales reps have different educational and compliance needs than most health care workers. Compliance courses developed by Maestro take this into account. Not only is the training relevant and convenient, it follows suit with Maestro's other creations which are engaging, enjoyable, and even entertaining.

Hospitals will appreciate the addition of content that meets regulatory requirements and provides necessary instruction on concepts that are commonly frustration points for both representatives and hospitals. For example, the Operating Room Protocol course content includes:

Proper hospital contact, including the appropriate channels of communication;
Safe conduct in the OR;
Proper protocol for introducing sample product into the OR environment; 
The top 10 mistakes of industry representatives.

A standard OR protocol course which only addresses the regulation does not properly prepare representatives for success.

In addition, Maestro has created courses that can satisfy the compliance needs of all healthcare employees. Both the Blood-borne Pathogens and HIPAA courses are approved for continuing medical education credit by the Association of periOperative Registered Nurses (AORN).

Maestro's founders recognized the necessity of online courses to accommodate dispersed locations. Sale reps, scattered across large regions of the country, need to be able to access compliance materials at home or on the road. Individual sales reps can buy their courses online through an eCommerce site, or corporate trainers may buy blocks of courses for their employees' training needs.
