"The course content is completely valid. For volunteers who will not be turning and doing range of motion exercises with patients, there should be a way to skip this training. It appears to me that the video portion of the training is a complete duplicate of the written content. While the video scenes are very well done, the duplication of content is VERY time consuming. One concern that I have is that the time required to complete all of the training could be an obstacle to the availability of volunteers."

The course covers a lot and some of the videos are duplicated which could be a hurdle for some viewers."
