DIRECTOR OF NURSING/DESIGNEE SIGNATURE
Direct caregivers not captured in payroll records must capture their direct care service
hours on this form. This includes nursing management, supervisors, registry, contract,
nurse assistants, and corporate staff.
For example, this may apply but not be limited to, the direct care service hours provided
by such employees as a Director of Nursing in a facility with 60 or more beds and a
Director of Staff Development when providing nursing services beyond the hours
required to carry out the duties of these positions.
SNFs with a subacute unit, shall not count direct care service hours provided in the
subacute unit for purposes of determining compliance with the 3.5 and 2.4 minimum
standards. CCR, Title 22, section 51215.5(h) prohibits nursing staff assigned to the
subacute care unit from being assigned other duties outside of the subacute care unit
during any given shift. Direct care service hours of nursing services provided by cross-
trained staff who are otherwise regularly assigned to departments such as medical
records, housekeeping, dietary or laundry, must be captured on this form. Documentation
must delineate the time spent on nursing services. Failure to provide this information will
result in the exclusion of all direct care service hours for such employees.
The Nursing Staffing Assignment and Sign-In Sheet must be legible. All employee
names must be include both first and last name.
Each direct caregiver included on the Nursing Staffing Assignment and Sign-In Sheet
must provide an original, written signature next to their printed name. This signature
verifies the employee was present in the facility, provided nursing services, and actually
worked the hours stated. Initials are not acceptable.
Only the employee that worked the nursing assignment may sign for him/herself.
The form must be signed by the Director of Nursing or his/her designee verifying the
information on the Nursing Staffing Assignment and Sign-In Sheet is complete, true and
accurate.
