The Challenge
CARA Allcare Pharmacy supports a large and growing network of nursing homes, hospitals, and care centres across Ireland. With clinical staff working across different sites, shifts, and care environments, delivering consistent, high-quality training was becoming increasingly difficult.
Training content existed, but access was fragmented. Tracking who had completed what and when required manual follow ups and administrative effort. As the organisation continued to grow, this approach became harder to sustain, particularly in a highly regulated healthcare setting where clear records, accountability, and up-to-date clinical knowledge are essential.
CARA needed a solution that would:
- Centralise clinical training in one place
- Make learning accessible to external partner staff
- Provide clear visibility of progress and completions
- Reduce admin overhead while improving compliance confidence
The Solution
CARA Pharmacy rolled out LearnRight as a free online clinical training platform for clinical staff across all partner nursing homes, hospitals, and care centres.
LearnRight provided a single, secure learning environment where training could be delivered, tracked, and reported on without adding complexity for either learners or administrators.
Clinical staff can now access training 24/7, allowing learning to fit around real-world shift patterns and workloads, rather than forcing training into rigid schedules.
How Cara Pharmacy Uses LearnRight
Centralised Clinical Training
All educational content now lives in one place, including:
- Medication management training
- Laxative use and best practice
- Psychotropic medication education
- Bespoke clinical topics requested by partner organisations
This removes confusion about where training lives and ensures staff can always access the most up-to-date, approved content.
Role Based Access for External Partners
LearnRight allows CARA to deliver training not just internally, but to external clinical staff across multiple organisations while keeping everything structured and secure.
- Learners only see training relevant to them
- Admins retain full oversight
- Managers can monitor progress across their teams
This makes LearnRight ideal for organisations’ training partners, members, or regulated external users, not just employees.
Automatic Progress & Completion Tracking
As clinical staff move through training:
- Progress is tracked automatically
- Completions are logged in real time
- Training history is always available
There’s no need to chase updates or manually confirm attendance. CARA can instantly see who has completed training and where additional support may be needed.
Audit Friendly Reporting
In healthcare, proof matters as much as training itself.
LearnRight provides clear, audit-ready reports showing:
- Who completed each course
- Completion dates
- Training status across groups and organisations
This gives CARA confidence that training records are always available when required — without scrambling for spreadsheets or emails.
The Impact
Since implementing LearnRight:
- Training is easier to manage and scale
- Clinical staff can learn at a time that suits them
- Admin time spent tracking training has dropped significantly
- Visibility across partner organisations has improved
- Training has become a predictable, well-run process instead of a recurring headache
Most importantly, CARA now has confidence that clinical education is consistent, accessible, and properly documented across its entire partner network.

LearnRight is particularly well suited to organisations that:
- Operate in regulated or compliance-heavy environments

For CARA Allcare Pharmacy, LearnRight isn’t just a training platform. It’s the foundation that allows clinical education to scale safely, consistently, and efficiently across a growing healthcare network.
