Geriatric care in the Netherlands – just like most other European countries – faces a big problem. Fewer doctors must provide increasingly complex care to the fast growing number of elderly people, who are living longer and longer. This continues 24 hours per day, 7 days per week, in both nursing homes and in the homes of the elderly. GeriCall, leader in regional collaboration in elderly care, boosts geriatric care with their innovative solution medialab. To develop, secure and maintain the appropriate knowledge of doctors and specialists, GeriCall has been using the adaptive microlearning app Drillster for two years. The app is used for the application process, the onboarding of new hires and for employees who have been working for the organization for a longer period of time. This ensures that every healthcare specialist has the right knowledge and skills to perform critical care tasks correctly.

Overcoming cognitive overload in learning.
Memory is one of the most crucial functions of the brain. It allows us to store and remember information. Unfortunately, our memory is not perfect: we often forget things we’ve learned in the past. This is due to the forgetting curve, a natural process that our brain uses to make room for urgent matters and prevent overload. In most cases, it’s not a big deal, as you don’t need to know everything at all times. However, there are situations where it’s crucial to have knowledge readily available. Think of time-critical tasks in the workplace where mistakes can have severe consequences. For these situations, we need to ensure that we overcome the forgetting curve. In this blog, we explain how to achieve this.
