This includes client safety and ensures environment is free of safety hazards by correcting any hazards found and reporting them to the supervisor
Responsibilities and duties include assistance with grooming, ambulation, observing and reporting individual’s conditions and behaviors; providing meaningful interactions with individuals, participating in individualized training and/or active treatment programs for both males and females
Also, documents information on the person’s life, such as things that occur throughout their daily schedule, how they respond to activities on the home, training, and unusual incidents
Completion of work requires use of simple and/or routine duties, while decision making is based on guidance and the supervision of a nurse
