Description

The Personal Care Policy in Ohio outlines the terms of employment between a client and caregiver, focusing on the assistance provided for daily living activities. Key features include the establishment of a work schedule, with a requirement for 48 hours' notice for any changes, and a termination clause allowing either party to end the agreement with two weeks' written notice. Specific tasks may include help with mobility, medication management, and accompanying clients to appointments, ensuring personalized service. Clients are advised to consult a lawyer before signing the agreement, acknowledging their freedom to negotiate terms. It emphasizes that the caregiver is an independent contractor, not an employee of the client, which limits liability. This form is particularly useful for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants in setting clear expectations and protecting the rights of both parties in caregiving arrangements in Ohio.
