Training Center for Care Excellence
Opening May 2025
Empowering Our Caregivers. Supporting Families. Strengthening Communities.
At Focus Homecare, we believe that quality care starts with confident, well-informed caregivers. That’s why we created the Training Center for Care Excellence — a hands-on learning space dedicated to equipping both our staff and family caregivers with the tools they need to provide safe, compassionate, and effective care at home at no cost.
Located in our Salem, CT office, our training room offers complimentary, in-person training to the community. Our interactive sessions are designed to build confidence and practical non-medical caregiving skills.
Whether you’re a family member caring for a loved one, a community member wanting to be prepared, or a caregiver looking to sharpen your knowledge, We are here for you.
Because when caregivers thrive, those they care for do too.
