Why Training Matters at Magdala: Empowering Staff, Enriching Lives

At Magdala, we believe that training is more than a requirement—it’s a lifeline. In moments of crisis, proper training can mean the difference between panic and protection, confusion and compassionate care. It equips our staff to respond quickly, confidently, and calmly in high-pressure situations.

But the value of training goes far beyond emergencies.

It enhances our team’s confidence, deepens professional skill sets, and fosters trust with clients, families, and the broader community. It ensures safety, supports dignity, and in some cases, even saves lives. Most importantly, it reinforces a simple truth: everyone deserves care from someone who is equipped to give it.

At Magdala, we’re not afraid of growth—we embrace it.

When staff from our Sisters’ Mission recently transitioned to our Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (IDD) Program, we made sure they received comprehensive training to support their success in this new role. Their presence is not only essential—it’s transformative.

Today, staff in our IDD Program are certified in CPR and trained in emergency response. That means they’re prepared to act quickly, safely, and with compassion when every second counts.

Because at Magdala, training isn’t just about meeting a requirement—it’s about living our values. It’s how we support the people we serve, and how we support those who serve them.

We’re preparing our team to help clients thrive—and to thrive themselves.

Growth isn’t just something we hope for; it’s something we strive for. It’s something we prepare for.
