Sign those credentials, you earned them. Be proud of them..LPN/RN Documentation must be accurate, detailed objective, precise and timely. All nurses’ notes must be signed by the patient or family member. This is proof of the nurse care and presence. Note that it is not legal or ethical to sign a client’s or family member’s signature. It constitutes fraud and is a felony. All Initial assessment must be completely filled out. For initial assessment packages, the yellow copies are left in the folder with the client and the white copies are returned back to the office. Holding your paperwork for too long only delays your payment for such services rendered. Called client’s MD? Document call/time and why. Check all appropriate boxes on the visit notes. DO NOT use white outs, scribble, trace over to change errors during your documentation. Simply draw a line across and write the correct information. Submit visit/progress notes within 7-14 days from the date of visit. A supervisory visit has to be done on the dates given on the visit schedule. NO exceptions. If unable to perform visit, contact the office/supervisor immediately. This is a state rule. DOCTOR’S ORDERS Always work with the MD orders. NO EXCEPTIONS! If MD did not order it, don’t do it! Doctor (and Faith Medical) must be notified of changes in client’s status. You call the doctor and document the communication. Verbal orders are taken, written, signed off and communicated back to your supervisor at Faith Medical Services within 24hrs by the RN/LPN All orders from a physician must be brought to the office (or faxed, emailed) Call your supervisor with “ALL NEW ORDERS” MEDICATION ADMINISTRATION At each visit, nurses must review all of the patient’s medications, dose and frequencies. Often, the physician’s office will notify patients of changes but not the nurse or agency. Changes should be called into the office immediately so that the computer records can be changed. At each Start of Care, the RN must review all medications and complete, date and sign the Medication Profile. It is important that you review the actual bottles for both prescription and over the counter medications and supplements to ensure that you have the correct spelling of the name, doses and frequencies. It is also important that you get the patient’s pharmacy name, address and telephone number to record on the form. It is a State regulation that we have the pharmacy name, address and telephone number. At each Follow-up and Resumption of Care, the RN must review the medication list, note changes on the on visit form. If there are no changes, the nurse should write “No changes”.

Be sure to document your monitoring of the patient and any other nursing interventions that are applicable. GENERAL PROCEDURES OF ADMINISTERING MEDICATIONS BY THE VARIOUS ROUTES PREPARATION: Compare the physician order with the medication provided by the pharmacy. Resolve any discrepancy in accordance with facility/agency policies before proceeding with the administration of the medication(s). Obtain the necessary supplies needed for the type of medication(s) to be administered such as medication cups, proper measuring devices, cotton balls, disposable gloves, tissues, crushing or splitting device, round nose tweezers.

to me which may be in the files of any state or local criminal justice agency in Georgia. I understand a State and Federal fingerprint criminal background check will be conducted. By signing below, I am indicating that I have read and understand the terms and conditions of the attached Non-Criminal Justice Applicant’s Privacy Rights and Policy Act Statements. Signature to agree*CAREGIVER PORTAL - TO BE COMPLETED ONLY BY AN APPLICANT OR EMPLOYEE BEING FINGERPRINTED AS PART OF FACILITY LICENSURE. DOES NOT INCLUDE OWNERS OR FAMILY EMPLOYERS. APPLICANT TYPE* Applicant for Employment/Direct Access Employee (Licensed Facility) Non-Employee (Volunteer at Licensed Facility) Contractor/Direct Access Employee (Licensed Facility) The Georgia Caregiver Portal only contains the eligibility status of applicants and employees who have successfully passed the background screening process. The Caregiver Portal does not contain the names of applicants and employees who are ineligible. Family employers can access the Caregiver Portal to view a prospective applicant or current employee’s eligibility to determine their suitability for employment to provide personal care services to that employer’s elderly family member or wards. All services are performed at locations not licensed by DCH. Individuals should check one of the boxes below. I agree to the results of my background check determination being available to family employers in the Georgia Caregiver Portal. I am seeking employment only by licensed healthcare employers. I do not want or agree to the results of my background check determination being available to family employers. SignatureAs an applicant that is the subject of a Georgia only or a Georgia and Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) national fingerprint/biometric-based criminal history record check for a non-criminal justice purpose (such as an application for a job or license, immigration or naturalization, security clearance, or adoption), you have certain rights which are discussed below: You must be provided written notification that your fingerprints/biometrics will be used to check the criminal history records maintained by the Georgia Crime Information Center (GCIC) and the FBI, when a federal record check is so authorized. If your fingerprints/biometrics are used to conduct a FBI national criminal history check, you are provided a copy of the Privacy Act Statement that would normally appear on the FBI fingerprint card. If you have a criminal history record, the agency making a determination of your suitability for the job, license, or other benefit must provide you the opportunity to complete or challenge the accuracy of the information in the record. The agency must advise you of the procedures for changing, correcting, or updating your criminal history record as set forth in Title 28, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Section 16.34. If you have a Georgia or FBI criminal history record, you should be afforded a reasonable amount of time to correct or complete the record (or decline to do so) before the agency denies you the job, license or other benefit based on information in the criminal history record. In the event an adverse employment or licensing decision is made, you must be informed of all information pertinent to that decision to include the contents of the record and the effect the record had upon the decision. Failure to provide all such information to the person subject to the adverse decision shall be a misdemeanor [O.C.G.A.§35-3-34(b) and §35-3- 35(b)]. You have the right to expect the agency receiving the results of the criminal history record check will use it only for authorized purposes and will not retain or disseminate it in violation of state and/or federal statute, regulation or executive order, or rule, procedure or standard established by the National Crime Prevention and Privacy Compact Council. If the employment/licensing agency policy permits, the agency may provide you with a copy of your Georgia or FBI criminal history record for review and possible challenge. If agency policy does not permit it to provide you a copy of the record, information regarding how to obtain a copy of your Georgia, FBI or other state criminal history may be obtained at the GBI website (http://gbi.georgia.gov/obtaining-criminal-history-record-information). If you decide to challenge the accuracy or completeness of your Georgia or FBI criminal history record, you should send your challenge to the agency that contributed the questioned information. Alternatively, you may send your challenge directly to GCIC provided the disputed arrest occurred in Georgia. Instructions to dispute the accuracy of your criminal history can be obtained at the GBI website (http://gbi.georgia.gov/obtaining-criminal-history-record-information). Authority: The FBI's acquisition, preservation, and exchange of fingerprints and associated information is generally authorized under 28 U.S.C. 534. Depending on the nature of your application, supplemental authorities include Federal statutes, State statutes pursuant to Pub. L. 92-544, Presidential Executive Orders, and federal regulations. Providing your fingerprints and associated information is voluntary; however, failure to do so may affect completion or approval of your application. Principal Purpose: Certain determinations, such as employment, licensing, and security clearances, may be predicated on fingerprint-based background checks. Your fingerprints and associated information/biometrics may be provided to the employing, investigating, or otherwise responsible agency, and/or the FBI for the purpose of comparing your fingerprints to other fingerprints in the FBI's Next Generation Identification (NGI) system or its successor systems (including civil, criminal, and latent fingerprint repositories) or other available records of the employing, investigating, or otherwise responsible agency. The FBI may retain your fingerprints and associated information/biometrics in NGI after the completion of this application and, while retained, your fingerprints may continue to be compared against other fingerprints submitted to or retained by NGI. Routine Uses: During the processing of this application and for as long thereafter as your fingerprints and associated information/biometrics are retained in NGI, your information may be disclosed pursuant to your consent, and may be disclosed without your consent as permitted by the Privacy Act of 1974 and all applicable Routine Uses as may be published at any time in the Federal Register, including the Routine Uses for the NGI system and the FBI's Blanket Routine Uses. Routine uses include, but are not limited to, disclosures to: employing, governmental or authorized non- governmental agencies responsible for employment, contracting, licensing, security clearances, and other suitability determinations; local, state, tribal, or federal law enforcement agencies; criminal justice agencies; and agencies responsible for national security or public safety.
