Secure Document Management:
Storing accurate records in a HIPAA-compliant location allows you to recall essential documents when necessary.

You can also manage permissions to these documents, ensuring only the necessary people can access them.
Secure Communication Tools
Secure communication tools allow homecare agencies an opportunity to streamline communication processes. Secure messaging in Generations Homecare System gives homecare teams a HIPAA-compliant tool to exchange messages. Keeping all messages in a secure system means you can revisit the messages both easily and conveniently whenever needed.
Visit Notes
Visit documentation allows providers to keep accurate records of each client’s health and ensure the correct care is provided. Furthermore, precise documentation means providers can mitigate risk factors in real-time.
Using the wellness tool in Generations Homecare System, caregivers complete wellness questions in the mobile app, and the management team is notified of results they deem high-risk. Check out some of the wellness questions we recommend asking.
Caregiver Scheduling
Accurate caregiver scheduling and records ensure proper care is delivered to your clients.

Simplify documentation and streamline the Medicaid reimbursement process using Electronic Visit Verification (EVV). EVV in Generations Homecare System uses GPS tracking technology to verify that care is delivered in the right place at the right time.
