• Partner with Lifeguard Customer Support Team to resolve any technology issues arising in client homes that impede insight generation.
• Providing regular updates to client families and agencies, including observations on their overall health and wellness, through a weekly report and monthly summary.
• Reporting incidents on a timely basis to the appointed family member or caregiver.
• During working hours, be readily available to take calls from clients on an as-needed basis.
• Answer questions and provide coaching to clients and family as needed.
• Actively share your perspective with the Lifeguard Team on how we can support our clients and improve the services we offer.
