Client care plan intake documents
Client care plan intake documents
Care plans need supporting records
Before a PSW delivers personal support, the agency needs a clear picture of the client's needs. That picture comes from intake documents — not from a single form filled in isolation.
Core supporting documents
ADL and mobility assessment notes, current medications with pharmacy contact, primary physician and relevant specialists, home safety observations, emergency contacts and SDM information, PHIPA consent, and signed acknowledgment of the service agreement or care plan.
Checklist-driven assembly
hivi-x lets coordinators attach an intake checklist to each client file, collect supporting documents through the family portal, review each item, and export the package that backs the care plan.

- Does hivi-x write clinical care plans?
- No. hivi-x collects and organizes intake supporting documents. Clinical care planning and visit documentation stay in your home care EMR or clinical workflow.
- How do coordinators verify completeness?
- Item-level approve and reject on each checklist upload shows which supporting documents are verified vs still outstanding.
