A sample. Sunnyvale House and its residents are made up; the layout, the plain-English lines and the honesty footer are exactly what a real home receives every Monday.
DailyChinwag: Wellbeing Report
Sunnyvale House · Mon 31 Aug to Fri 4 Sep · prepared for Jo Manager
This week at a glance
| 3residents | 12chinwags had | 1call unanswered | 1concern raised |
Needs attention
- Margaret: 1 concern raised (Monday, not eating much; on-duty number told the same day)
Quietest this week
Fewest chinwags of anyone whose calls have started. Not a concern in itself, often a hospital appointment or a busy week, but it is who we have heard least from.
- Arthur: 3 chinwags (away at his daughter’s from Thursday)
What this is
A record of each resident’s daily companionship calls: whether they answered, how long they talked, and how they seemed, in one plain line. Every resident consented to their calls themselves. It is a companionship record for your own notes and inspections; it is not a clinical assessment and never replaces staff judgement.
