Home Healthcare Schedule Module

Continuex Corporation is pleased to announce the availability of our Home Healthcare Scheduling module. This new product addresses scheduling for home healthcare services from the perspective of the client as opposed to most software packages that address this task from the perspective of the service provider. By addressing the task from the client perspective, the software helps minimize the potential for missed delivery of services to your home healthcare clients. The software does allow viewing and scheduling of services starting with either the client or the service provider but the primary scheduling method is through the client’s information.

Some of the major features include

• The ability for you to base your scheduling week on any of the following:
Monday – Sunday
Sunday - Saturday
Saturday - Friday

• Flexible schedule codes that allow you to specify the calendar days or days of the week that a client requests a particular service

• The ability to specify care giver availability days and hours with revisions at any time

• The ability to specify care giver exceptions to their normal schedule for reasons such as:
Vacation time
Sick time
Holidays
Other (such as doctor appointments, classes, etc.)

• The ability to maintain a list of services provided, their fee amount and their associated GL revenue account

• The ability to maintain notes on individual clients for any purpose

• The ability to indicate which services a particular care giver can provide and at what proficiency level they provide that service

• Multiple scheduling cross-checks when scheduling a service to ensure that:
The care giver is available that day
The care giver is not already scheduled with another client

• The ability to copy a client’s prior week schedule forward checking to make sure that the care giver does not have a conflict with the new week

• The ability to pull up both the client’s and the care giver’s full month schedule while performing the scheduling task

• The ability to auto-schedule a care giver to a client for a particular service based on the requested service dates and the care giver’s availability

• The ability to print or email the care giver’s schedule, including the client’s demographic information and notes

• The ability to print the clients scheduled services for any date range

• The ability to print a service review which organizes scheduled services by service type and dates across all clients and care givers

• The ability to print a care giver’s scheduled hours across all clients for any date range

• The ability to run a schedule audit looking for unscheduled services for any client

• The ability to delete or cancel a scheduled service. When canceling a scheduled service, you can specify the reason for the cancellation.

• Integration with the Continuex Account Receivable and Payroll modules to:
Retrieve care giver information
Client (customer) information
Generate invoices and statements for services rendered
