Tasks, by type of work.

Documents
Write a progress note after the shift
An agent can turn a short voice note into a tidy record. The worker checks that it is accurate, respectful and appropriate to share.
Read the support plan and prepare for the shift
An agent can summarise the plan, appointments and notes for the day. The worker still reads anything that affects care or safety.
Customer chat
Talk through the day's plan and choices with the participant
How the day runs should be a conversation with the person, not just a checklist.
