For the shift where training becomes real
Your first assignment should not feel like guesswork.
Training gives you the foundation. This guide organizes the practical reminders that help you prepare, enter the home professionally, follow the plan of care, and know when to contact your agency.
“What should I review before I go—and what do I do when I arrive?”
Replace first-shift uncertainty with a concise sequence you can review before the visit.
The first 10 minutes
Introduce yourself, verify the client, observe the environment, and begin calmly.
During the visit
Follow the plan of care, stay within scope, and maintain professional boundaries.
When something changes
Use objective observations and follow agency procedures for reporting and emergencies.
