CareAcademy Announces Innovative Research Initiative with the Center for Community Health & Evaluation of Kaiser Permanente Washington to Evaluate Impact of Caregiver Training on Health Outcomes
BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 6, 2025--
CareAcademy , the leading provider of caregiver training and compliance technology, is proud to announce a collaborative research project with the Center for Community Health and Evaluation (CCHE) . This initiative will evaluate CareAcademy's newly developed Safety Specialist Certificate Program (SSCP) and its impact on caregiver confidence, patient outcomes, and healthcare cost savings.
CCHE, known for its rigorous yet practical evaluation methods, brings decades of experience in health-related program assessments across the United States. Their mission to improve community health aligns seamlessly with CareAcademy's commitment to empowering caregivers and enhancing care delivery.
The SSCP training intervention combines existing CareAcademy modules with a focus on increasing medication adherence and reducing rehospitalizations among persons receiving care (PRC). While CareAcademy's data shows that caregivers report heightened confidence after training, this study will be the first formal evaluation to measure the program's impact on PRC outcomes.
Helen Adeosun, CEO of CareAcademy, expressed enthusiasm for the partnership: 'At CareAcademy, we believe in the transformative power of education for caregivers. This research will provide valuable insights into how our training directly improves patient care and health outcomes. This new information is a game changer for our entire industry and elevates the value of caregivers enabling health.
Partnering with CCHE allows us to take a critical step forward in demonstrating the measurable impact of caregiver education.'
Maggie Smith, Director at CCHE, added 'We are excited to collaborate with CareAcademy on this important evaluation. Caregiver training plays a vital role in supporting community health, and this evaluation will help us understand how structured education programs can enhance caregiver effectiveness and improve health outcomes for patients across diverse care settings.'
The evaluation, slated for implementation this year, will engage CareAcademy's key partner, Sharecare , which connects families nationwide with caregivers through its tech-enabled home care services. CCHE's research will include: Caregiver Experience and Outcomes: Understanding how caregivers perceive the SSCP training and its effects on their professional confidence, stress levels, and job satisfaction.
Patient Outcomes: Assessing PRC health outcomes, including hospital readmission rates, medication adherence, and overall quality of life.
Cost Savings: Modeling potential long-term cost savings through improved patient health outcomes.

The Tastiest Side Dish At Panda Express Is Actually One Of The Healthiest Things On The Menu
Panda Express is practically synonymous with mall crawls and quick eats. If you're looking for low-carb fast food options that won't ruin your diet, the choices can seem few and far between; however, there are still a handful of nutritious dishes among Panda's offerings. Tasting Table set out to determine the definitive rankings of Panda Express' menu items and stumbled upon a runner-up to its ubiquitous orange chicken that packs a punch of lean, green deliciousness. Panda Express super greens are nothing short of heroic and can be ordered as a health-conscious side dish, entree, or kid's meal. Though fast food vegetables can seem like a gamble as far as taste and quality, the mix of kale, cabbage, and broccoli is tossed in a sauce that's been seasoned to perfection, providing nutritional benefits without skimping on the flavor. Per Tasting Table's assessment, the super greens maintain a balanced consistency between crisp and tender, and the garlic sauce is reminiscent of a home-cooked meal. The wholesome nutritional value offers 7 grams of dietary fiber and 9 grams of protein per 10-ounce serving, both of which help to promote gut health, longevity, and healthy muscles. The dish is also lower in sugar, fat, and sodium in comparison to the dishes you should think twice about ordering. Panda Express fans certainly echo this positive sentiment, praising the dish for its simplicity in preparation and big flavor. Read more: 13 Chinese Restaurant Chains, Ranked Worst To Best A thoughtful mix of green vegetables in a light and aromatic sauce, Panda Express super greens are not only a go-to order for Panda customers, but also for employees. Many have tried to suss out what it is about the sauce that makes it so crave-worthy, and the truth is actually much simpler than you might imagine. Whereas copycat recipes attempt to replicate the dish by sauteeing the veggies in a neutral oil, and tossing them with minced garlic, ginger, and soy sauce, Panda Express employees have mentioned the sauce is primarily made of a powdered vegetable soup mix diluted in oil with an additional pinch of salt and garlic in which the blanched vegetables are tossed. You can easily make your own version of the dish at home, though it will not taste exactly like the Panda Express menu item you know and love. Whether you're venturing out for a fast food treat or making your own veggie side dish, remember that the key to any healthy dish is keeping your ingredients simple and preparation methods effective. And the next time you're tossed between steamed rice and chow mein, try pivoting towards a greener alternative. You might find yourself pleasantly surprised.
