Guiding Growth delivers Utah's required assisted living orientation and core competencies — for every direct-care and support role — engaging, turn-key, and fully documented for your survey. Plus a live Care Center that helps your team through the hard days and stay. Built only for assisted living.
Why now
Utah dropped the CNA requirement and replaced it with a documented 16-hour orientation plus demonstrated core competencies for every direct-care employee. Every facility now owes a record a surveyor checks — and binders and DIY orientation don't reliably produce it.
The training was rarely the gap. The signed competency record is.

Straight answers
We train and document your whole direct-care team to Utah's standard. Licensed nurses get clinical CE through their boards, as always — and they still use the orientation and wellness training alongside everyone else.
The training usually isn't the gap; the signed competency record is. We produce that record automatically, and staff actually finish — so the documentation a surveyor asks for exists before they ask.
Relias is generic and built for skilled nursing. Guiding Growth is assisted-living-native, concise, and includes live human support that no content library offers.
No. We provide the training and the documentation; the facility verifies competency and remains responsible for compliance. We make the record clean, complete, and easy to hand over.
