Questionnaire in Telephony NOW AVAILABLE

If you clock in to work by calling the phone number, COVID -19 screening questions will now be played.

After you identity yourself and your shift is verified, the Caregiver Screening Questionnaire begins. After each question, you will be prompted to press 1 for Yes or 2 for No. If there are any Yes answers, you hear a message instructing you to contact their office. You are not prevented from clocking in.

The telephony and mobile app questionnaires behave in the same manner:

• Both use the same wording and ask questions in the same order.

• Both trigger a notification to the Office

As always, if you have any questions regarding your health or your seniors’ health, call the Office before delivering care.

Caregiver Cleaning and Safety Tips

In the video we shared several cleaning and safety tips. A few of these came from our favorite professional cleaner Debbie Sarbone and from our own caregivers. We are always interested in hearing your innovations and ideas, so if you think there is something we have missed please share.

Cleaning rules of 3

1. Spray and Stay - Spray disinfectant and let it sit for the allotted amount of time listed on the back of the bottle (usually 90-120 seconds)

2. Clean surface before you disinfect - Wipe off food and grime before using a disinfectant. You can use any all purpose cleaner for this step

3. Once and Done - After one use just flip the rag/wet-wipe to a different side so that you are not spreading germs. If used too many times you will be doing more harm than good when it comes to sanitizing your house

Supplies Pick-up

To all of our essential caregivers your good work has not gone unnoticed. Your willingness to continue caring for our seniors even with the personal risk is inspiring. Having to wear gloves and a mask the entire time you work is never fun. But so many of you have taken it in stride and not complained once about it. Even when some of you had to drive to the office for a mask/apron pick up.

Thank you to all our essential caregivers who still work hard taking care of their seniors. And we here in the office think you all look great in those masks!
