Carelink+ Shift/Case Notes Procedure
Supported employee notes require:
•Person first
notes – No “we” did
this or “I” that did that…e.g., Person’s name was supported 1:1 to
transplant seedlings into pots or Person’s
name was shown how to do XYZ & was able to complete
the task independently with supervision.
•How they were
supported - This is
VERY important
Note use of verbal prompts or visual demonstration used
for instruction & tasks. Did they require redirection back to tasks. Were
they able to work independently with supervision or did they require 1:1
support, 1:2 support etc.
•What they
did
Use the white
board for reference -Transplanting, pricking out, manual work, weeding etc.
Don’t forget to reference how they were supported to do these tasks. This
is important for audits & NDIS funding review.
•Quantity of work &
approximate timeframe
For example, 160 seedlings transplanted in 4 hrs approx.
This gives
refence to productivity which is important for wage assessment & tracking
progress/decline.
•Identify any issues that
are ongoing.
e.g.,
Behaviours, OHS risks, need for redirection, distraction, reduced capacity or
health & wellbeing etc. Identify how many times intervention was required –
3 times, frequently, entire shift etc.
•Strategies or ongoing
support used to address issues or behaviours.
What strategy was used to address
these issues.
•Note positive outcomes, interactions and goals met.
If unsure how to proceed, view previous Seawinds shift notes for the supported employee as a guide.
