Managing Employees

☐ Review Sandata EVV learning pathways and have staff view the appropriate   Nevada DHCFP EVV Recorded Training Webinars – Sandata Technologies.

☐ Develop training for your caregivers on the Sandata Telephonic Visit Verification (“TVV”) IVR and Sandata Mobile Connect (“SMC”) visit data entry capture tools.

Caregiver Training Toolkit

☐ Check the system to see if your employees are in the EVV system.

  • If your employee is not there, create the employee and check the box to allow employee access to the SMC app.

How to Create a New Employee

  • If your employee is there, grant SMC app access to all current employees who need it. In the EVV system, on the Employees screen, check the “Mobile User” box at the bottom left of the screen. This will trigger an email to be sent to their email with a temporary password for them to sign into the app.

 How to Edit an Existing Employee

NOTE: Please let employees know that they will receive this email and should open it from their mobile device after they have downloaded the SMC app.

 

NOTE: You should see your current authorizations and their associated clients in the system.

 

Caregivers

☐ Download the Sandata Mobile Connect (”SMC”) app through the Apple Store or Google Play. You will be able to log in once your employer has given you access.

☐ Attend employer-led training for Caregivers on visit capture through the Sandata Telephonic Visit Verification (”TVV”) visit data entry system and SMC App.

☐ Complete your first-time log in to SMC.

How to Log In to SMC the First Time

☐ Begin entering visit information through the SMC app. If you cannot use the app, use the alternative method (telephone) as approved by your employer.

How to Start and Complete a Visit in Sandata Mobile Connect

☐ If you do not have access to the SMC app, notify your agency and complete your scheduled visits using the alternate visit verification method chosen by your Agency.

☐ Review the Call Reference Guides to become familiar with the information required during a visit and to understand how to access the TVV system.

☐ Access the Caregiver Library section of Sandata On-Demand to review training documents for the Sandata Mobile Connect app.
