Abstract
This study offers evidence that computer-based instruction is a feasible and effective alternative training method for long-term care staff. Participants were 289 nursing facility staff randomly divided into two treatment groups. One group completed instructor-led (IL) fire safety training and the other completed computer-based (CB) training adapted from the IL version. Both the CB and IL groups significantly increased their scores from pre- to posttest. Differences between the two groups were not significant.
