Check with Maya
How did the shopping list work out?
This belongs in Jordan’s contact log (SD-14): it was a call, not a support session.
Draft: check it before it is saved
I helped Jordan call his GP at 10:15 because he has been feeling tired. He said “I can’t keep my eyes open after lunch.” I did not check his medication.
Still needed
Did the GP give Jordan an appointment?
Here is the booking for you to check. Nothing is booked until you confirm it.
In her contact log (SD-14), with Add a new entry. An appointment she arranged herself goes there rather than the Calendar, because it is not a meeting with you.
Once she has been, a line about how it went keeps her file complete.
Your organisation’s procedure, First meetings (version 2) 1, says:
- Start with what the person would find useful, and what they already know about the support on offer.
- Agree one manageable next step and when you will come back to it. 1
Adapt the conversation to the person rather than treating the outline as a script.
Every answer shows
where it came from.
Each fact in an answer is numbered. Press a number and the record it came from opens, at the version Guide read.
Maya chose three meals for the week and made a shopping list with you on 5 October. Her support plan’s goal is to budget for a week of food, and 2 of its 3 steps are done. She first asked about planning her meals on 30 September, so the idea came from her.
Guide also says what it could not read, such as a scanned paper copy, so “not found” never means “not there”.
“Budget for a week of food.” 2 of 3 steps done.
“Maya asked about planning her meals for the week.”
About the work, a resident,
or a single record.
Your staff choose who a question is about, and Guide reads only that resident’s file. Answers stay accurate, and nobody sees more than their role allows.
General support
New staff get a confident answer on planning a session or writing up their notes, in line with your own procedures, without waiting for a manager.
About a resident
Prepare a session, check progress on goals or see what is overdue in seconds, drawn from their whole file instead of searching through it.
No surprises at review time
Guide sums up what has been recorded, picks out what still needs following up and flags anything missing, so your team walks into every review and inspection prepared.
A knowledgeable colleague.
On every shift.
Guide gives every worker a knowledgeable colleague to ask, so questions don’t sit waiting for a manager.
Answers from the record
Each fact numbered and linked to the record it came from, so anyone can check it in seconds.
Knows what is due
Overdue reviews and today’s appointments come from Residoc’s own rules, at the top of the answer.
Drafts in your own words
Tell Guide what happened and it drafts the record, keeping every word your worker wrote.
Books and logs, once confirmed
An appointment, a contact-log entry or a form, shown in full and made only when your worker says so.
Your procedures built in
Guide follows your approved procedures and names the one it used, with its version.
Only the residents you can see
Support workers ask about their own residents, providers about the whole organisation.
Your team decides.
Guide never signs or files a form, records attendance, changes a goal or contacts anyone. Anything it offers to do is shown in full first, and nothing is saved until your worker confirms it.
A few things worth knowing.
The details behind the day-to-day work.
What can Guide do for my team?
Answer questions from a resident’s records, find anything on their file, say what is due today, prepare a session, write up what a worker tells it in their own words, and book, log or start a form once the worker confirms.
Does Guide change records on its own?
No. Guide can offer an appointment, a contact-log entry or a form to start, shown in full in a window. Nothing is saved until the worker confirms it, and it never signs or files a form, records attendance or contacts anyone.
How do we know an answer is right?
Every fact about a resident is numbered and opens the record it came from. Guide also says what it could not read, so a gap is never mistaken for nothing on file.
Will Guide reword what my staff write?
No. When Guide drafts a record from what a worker tells it, every word they wrote is kept, checked by Residoc before it is shown, and nothing is saved until they confirm it.
Does Guide use our own procedures?
Yes. Add your organisation’s approved procedures and Guide follows the ones a question touches, naming the procedure and its version in the answer.
Who can Guide answer about?
Only the residents the person asking already has access to: support workers their own residents, providers their whole organisation.
