Video 19: What happens if a caregiver does not show up for their shift?

AutumnGrove Cottage has a protocol for caregivers that do not come to work, including the manager covering the shift. In addition we have a caregiver call list from other AutumnGrove Cottages and who work part time and trained to work in a relief pool. This allows us to always have caregivers available to help your loved one.
