Assignment Sheets have been used to communicate basic demographics and a summary of the care plan to our caregivers for many years. When we implemented Clear Care in 2019 our goal was to utilize their Care Plan feature, adding enough detail, so that we could eliminate the need for the Assignment Sheet, and allow caregivers immediate access to the care plan on their mobile device. Now that nearly all employees are accessing Clear Care Go on their phones, successfully clocking in and out of each shift, we are ready to take the next step!
If you have not already accessed client care plans on your Clear Care app, this is the time to do so:
· From the Client tab, or after you are clocked into a shift, press on the “Care Plan” icon at the top right of your screen.
· Click on the arrows beside the tasks to see more detail.
While assignment sheets will continue to be available during the transition, new clients will not have one, and eventually we will stop using assignment sheets for all clients. As always, you are required to review the care plan with the nursing supervisor prior to going to your shift.
We will provide additional instruction and support as we make the transition away from Assignment Sheets. Look for an upcoming optional ZOOM class to answer questions and provide visual guidance. Please contact the office if you have questions.
