Driving Reminders

Can You Drive?

Only approved Drivers are allowed to drive clients or on behalf of a client. If you are unsure whether you were approved for driving, call the office and confirm prior to any trip. Insurance coverages are substantially impacted if you are not an approved driver but are driving anyway.

Driving Requirements

Driving on behalf of a client with/or without them in your car is only done when you have a TASK for it on your shift. Approved for transportation is what you are looking for to confirm before calling the office. If these tasks are not on the shift, you need to call the office first to obtain approval to drive for the client.

Reminders

  • Only if there is a task.

  • Mileage and reason must be input after driving is complete.

  • Citations must be reported to the office.

  • Insurance required

Always remember to be careful and drive safe.

Employee Meeting Success

We want to thank everyone that attended our employee meeting this past Tuesday. For those of you in person, your enthusiasm, generousity and laughter was wonderful. You make the office team feel very gratified. If you were unable to attend, the training on using a gait belt and transfers will be sent shortly. Thank you for all you do!

Our next meeting will be May 27.

National Slam the Scam Day

March 6, 2025 

Help protect your loved ones and people in your community this Slam the Scam Day by:  

  • Learning about the latest scams. Information can empower you to quickly recognize a scam. Signs of a scam include:

    • An unexpected problem or offer of a prize or benefit increase,

    • Pressure to act immediately, and

    • A request for an unusual payment like cryptocurrency, gift cards, gold bars, and wire transfers, even with the promise of keeping your money “safe.”

  • Reporting scams as soon as possible. Victims shouldn’t be embarrassed if they shared personal information or suffered a financial loss. We are all vulnerable. 

  • Sharing  Scam Alert fact sheet and helping educate others about how to protect themselves.   

Remember to report Social Security-related scams to the Social Security Administration Office of the Inspector General (OIG). Report a Scam
