4.1 Why Your Documentation Is Important
If you’ve worked in a healthcare environment before, you already know that documentation is a major part of everyone’s job. You might have even heard the common phrase, “if you didn’t document it, it didn’t happen.” Here at Easy Living, caregiver documentation is the foundation of how we communicate with one another and how we […]
3.2 Where to Find It
Now that you understand how important the care plan is, you have to know where to access it. You can find a client’s care plan in your ClearCareGo app. Your tasks that you document each shift on the app are taken right from the care plan as well. When you document about your tasks, it […]

2.4 Advance Directives
Finally, let’s talk about advance directives. These are legal documents that allow people to know your wishes or decisions in case you are unable to make those decisions on your own. It is common for clients we serve to have advance directives. The types we are going to cover today are Power of Attorney and […]
2.3 Confidentiality
Privacy and confidentiality is an important part of your job as a caregiver here at Easy Living. Not only are we an agency that has to follow HIPAA laws from the federal government, keeping our client’s information private and their care confidential is just one more way we can preserve their dignity. Let’s talk about […]
2.2 Abuse and Neglect
Working with clients in their homes means you have a front-row seat to their daily life.

We are going to spend some time reviewing types of abuse, as well as signs to report […]

1.6 Clocking In and Out

1.4 Dress Code
Part of professionalism is looking the part. We do have expectations for our Care Partners when it comes to dress code. Please wear scrubs that are clean and look nice. Wear closed-toed shoes.
