Professional Guidelines:
- Caregivers must be fully aware of Protected Health Information (PHI) and Personally Identifying Information (PHI) guidelines and practice professional confidentiality.
- Social media: Professional boundaries are important in all healthcare settings, but they are even more important in-home care nursing. One of the biggest issues today is client family/caregiver relationship in social media. Given the federal requirements for client confidentiality, it is dangerous for a caregiver to befriend a client (or family) on social media. Indicating on social media that you are a client's caregiver by using the client's (or family) name, the client's page, or a picture, may violate a client's PHI or PII. If a caregiver and client (or client's family) are connected on social media, the caregiver must take great precautions to be sure that they never indicate being the client's caregiver: that relationship is confidential.

- Role Reversal and Vocational Professionalism:
Role Reversal is when a caregiver shares his/her problem with the client (or family). Because the client and family depend on the caregiver so much, the client and family often want to help the caregiver solve problems. Clients and families often discuss their health, emotional and social problems with their caregivers, and that is appropriate. It is not appropriate, however, if the caregiver to shares her/his problems with the client or the client's family. Likewise, it is not appropriate for the client to discuss agency decisions regarding scheduling, co -worker relationships, wage, or other employment related issues with the client or family. Caregivers and Professionals and members of a team with specialized roles and should communicate via proper channels to those with relevant authority within the organizations and teams involved.

As part of our commitment to professionalism, we have specific training for our caregivers at hire and annually during their competencies. All of our caregivers must do all the training and get the support they need to succeed as home care professionals.

Caregivers must show respect the clients' dignity, privacy, property, finances, religion, cultural and world views.
