Once Standard Nursing Agency has supplied the service user with an agency worker the agency worker, will be issued with a timesheet for completion at the end of each assignment.
- The authorised person at the unit or the service user should sign the timesheet after the shift verifying the number of hours worked by the agency worker during that week.
- All completed signed timesheets must be submitted to the office not later than Tuesday noon.
- Timesheets older than four weeks old will not be paid.
- Completed timesheets are returned to the agency on a regular basis and retained on individual files as a permanent record of care provision.
- The accounts officer checks the timesheets against the order to ensure that it is accurate before invoicing the service user.
- Where the service user is paying the agency worker’s mileage, an expenses form from the service user should be completed.
