Overview

What are Shift Notes?

Shift notes are notes taken at the end of a shift that detail what happened during the shift or other information that is useful to tracking the progress of a participants goals.

The main things to focus on are:

• Were there any issues or problems?
• What was done during the shift?
• What progress was made toward the participant's goals?
• Any other information you believe is relevant to the shift.

The level of detail you include is ultimately up to you, but the more detail you are able to include, the easier the notes will be to use later on, whether it be during some type of audit, or tracking the progress of a participants goals.
