Objective To analyze the impact of applying the O2O hybrid teaching mode on the autonomous learning ability of elderly care workers when conducting elderly care skills training. Methods One hundred elderly care workers were selected and all registered and enrolled in a certain city from January 2023 to June 2024. They were divided into two groups according to different teaching modes, with 50 cases in each group, namely the control group and the study group. Among them, the elderly care workers in the control group chose the conventional teaching mode, while those in the study group chose the 020 mixed teaching mode. The teaching quality of the two groups was analyzed and compared. Results Compared with the control group, the practical and theoretical scores of the study group were both higher (P < 0.05). The effect evaluation of the teaching mode adopted by the research group was significantly better than that of the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion When conducting skills training for elderly care, the application of the O2O hybrid teaching model can not only enable elderly care workers to better master and understand the relevant theoretical knowledge of elderly care and improve their practical operation skills, but also significantly enhance their autonomous learning ability.
