1. Limit the cash in the home and use checks or debit cards. Checks and Debit cards can be tracked
2. Gift cards should be secured and the amount, card number, and the security pin on the back (typically under scratch off area) needs recorded away from the cards. We typically can track them if we have all that information.
3. Financial ledgers should be verified often and we recommend staff count each shift together to enhance accountability.
4. For electronics someone should inventory the items and the serial number of the item. (keep info out of home and separate from the item)
5. I cannot stress enough to minimize cash and document the gift card information (keep separate and out of the house).
