Hrm/531 Work Plan
The purpose of this assignment is to outline a plan of care for three residents, who, for the purpose of confidentiality within this report, will be referred to as L, J, and F, from the start of my shift at 0645 hours until lunch is served at 1200 hours. The time line will also include all work breaks taken, so as to be as accurate as possible. The work plan will include descriptions of how the comfort and dignity of each resident was upheld while care was provided as well as the safety practices associated with each activity. In addition, before the order of care for L, J, and F is described, I will include a brief overview of each client's significant individual care requirements.

Perform a check for safety and comfort. Turn the resident so the her legs are over the edge of the bed.

Put on the resident's shoes, being careful to avoid touching the bottoms of the shoes. Raise the lift and position the client over the w/c. As you lower the client into the w/c, push on the crossed straps, hold the bar away from the resident's face, and guide her feet, meanwhile, your coworker tips the w/c to ensure the client lands is positioned properly in the chair. Ask L if she is comfortable in that seated position. If she is, unhook the sling from the lift, and tuck/tie the sling away, as it will remain under her until she lies down
