Generations Homecare System

I have been using Generations app for about 4 months. It’s great! I use it to log in/out of my shifts; I see my schedule, messages, notifications. I see and able to bid on available shifts, read and write care notes. It’s all in the one app! Not having to go to different sites to sign and then another to see care notes it’s very convenient and centralized. I’ve had no issues or problems with app. It’s never frozen or not available. Great for all work related activities.

I have only been using Generations for about a week so I can only say what my experience has been in that short time. Overall, I think it is fairly easy to use. It gives me what I need to know about a client (as long as his/her information is entered) before I see the client. It tells me what tasks I need to be doing with each client. I like being able to log in and out with my phone. Maybe there are more things this app could do, but from what little experience I have had with it, I don’t know what else would be helpful. It seems to cover the basics of what I and my supervisor need. I had it go offline this morning when I tried to log out but I either refreshed it or went out of it and came back into it and it went back online. My phone indicated full internet which is way more than I get at home most of the time. That’s the only issue I’ve had and that may have more to do with my phone than the app. I really like it. It’s easy, convenient and doesn’t take long to use. This is far better and easier to use than EPIC was for hospital professional note documentation was when I was a registered dietitian. I like simple and easy. EPIC was neither simple or easy.

This is a good app! It’s easy to use, more convenient than timesheets, you can communicate with the office inside the app, you can document everything about your client, you can see what prior aids posted regarding the client, and the GPS is the best!! I catch the bus to my clients and it tells me stop by stop to ensure I know where I am going. It’s the best! Thank you for keeping me safe!! The only reasons I don’t give it five stars is because it doesn’t give you any information about the client before you accept a shift. All you have is a name and location. This makes scheduling your client’s harder because you have to keep calling the office. That’s so inconvenient! The other thing is that payroll is separate from the app. You should be able to see the total hours you work on a daily, weekly, and monthly basis at least! Also, it notifies you when you need to clock in, missing a signature but not if you forget to clock out. That makes no sense! Then it would be worthy of a five!!
