8 Tips on Being a Successful Home Care Attendant

noreply@blogger.com (First Care of New York, Inc.) — Wed, 29 Dec 2010 19:51:00 +0000

1. Communicate with your patient. You want to make sure you understand their needs and that they understand you are there to help them.

2. Keep your patient’s living areas clean, neat and clutter free!

3. Wash your hands often and use gloves as needed. It is not only for the sake of good hygiene but also good for preventing germs from spreading from you to your patients and to your families.

4. Remember you are not to administer any type of medications to your patient but you do need to remind them at the right time, assist with opening bottles, bring liquids for swallowing, clean up and dispose sharps properly.

5. Communicate with your patient’s families about their needs and expectations as you are caring for someone they love. Be sure that you do so in compliance with HIPPA and protect PHI at all times as you are bound by law to respect your patient’s privacy!

6. Be prepared in case of an emergency. Make sure you have all the required numbers you need to call in case your patient or you have an emergency situation.

7. Always be on time as your patient is counting on you. If you are sick, be sure to call in and inform your agencies coordinator about your absence and they will make the necessary arrangement for a replacement. The goal is to give as much advance notice as possible, to minimize any disruption of service to your patient. You never want to put your patient at risk. Your health and theirs is most important.

8. If you ever have questions, concerns, or you are unsure of what to do in a situation, contact the agency as we are always here to help make Home Care a successful experience for you and your patient.

What is a professional reference letter? vs. What is a personal reference letter?

noreply@blogger.com (First Care of New York, Inc.) — Wed, 21 Jul 2010 18:37:00 +0000

What is a professional reference letter? vs. What is a personal reference letter?

PROFESSIONAL REFERENCE LETTER:

When someone you know is writing you a professional reference letter, they need to include the following:

1- Job Title ex. (RN, Social Worker, Police Officer, Manager, etc.)
2- Company Name and Address.
3- Phone Number
4- Speak to your good character and must be signed.
5- Must be typed and signed.

For example, if you are looking for a job as a Home Care Attendant and you provide three professional references (I.E. from a Business Owner, Tax Consultant and/or a Doctor) this exhibits that you have excellent professional contacts.

They may also want to specify in what capacity they know you, such as being an Employer, Supervisor, Co-Worker or business associate. This helps us understand what your relationship was to the reference and how they are qualified to critique your experience.

PERSONAL REFERENCE LETTER:

When someone you know is writing a personal reference letter, they need to include the following:
1- Can be written by a Friend and/or Family member.
2- Phone Number.
3- Can be hand-written or typed.

When written by a family member or friend, the letter is likely to include specific examples that help illustrate all of the character traits that make the individual qualified for that position.

Including a reference's job title can help advance your image especially if the person's position is similar to the job you want or business you are pursuing. In this case, we will be interested in feedback about you from someone in a related field or who was in a position of responsibility that can judge your work experience, professionalism and reliability.
