To ensure we are able to pay you correctly, you MUST clock in and out for each shift. A failure to complete this information, will not only impact your pay, but the charges applied to families through our billing system. If you are struggling to record your times in Nightingale please email rostering@hannahshouse.org.au as soon as possible at the beginning and end of your shift.

At the moment, these are not going to be requested for each child. Please reach out to your Clinical Coordinator if you require further clarification for your clients.

If you wish to claim kilometres as part of your shift, you must discuss this with your Support Coordinator before the shift has commenced. Alternatively, you can claim travel (separate to your normal commute to and from work) via tax at the end of the financial year.

If you lose your phone you must inform Hannahs House as soon as possible so we can deactivate your account (if required). All phones utilising the Nightingale Staff App should have a pin/password set to prevent unauthorised access. All client related activity (photos, downloads, emails, text messages and phone calls) should be deleted on a fortnightly basis to prevent unauthorised access if your phone is lost.
