Training Program for Care Professionals in Nursing Homes: Effectiveness and Feasibility.

The aim of the current study was to analyze the effectiveness and feasibility of a training program for care professionals at two nursing homes, investigating the impact on their beliefs, attitudes, and knowledge regarding aging. Twenty-three formal caregivers at a private nursing home and 10 formal caregivers at a philanthropic nursing home participated in the training program, which consisted of five weekly meetings, each lasting 1.5 hours.
