Healthcare Cybersecurity

A caregiver-focused course on protecting health information, recognizing cyber risks, using devices safely, and reporting security concerns.

This course teaches healthcare cybersecurity in practical terms for caregivers, support workers, and non-technical healthcare learners. It explains why cyber safety protects clients, families, staff, and continuity of care. Learners cover passwords, phishing, mobile device safety, secure communication, social engineering, ransomware awareness, physical security, incident reporting, privacy, and safe behavior during system downtime. The course does not train learners to perform technical security administration. Instead, it builds everyday cybersecurity habits that caregivers can apply immediately while following organizational policy and supervision. This course is designed for practical caregiving education. It presents key ideas in accessible language, supports safe decision-making, and reinforces the importance of following organizational policy, local law, and guidance from licensed professionals. The course can be adapted for online lectures, narrated slides, discussion prompts, workbooks, or blended training sessions.
