In California, all healthcare facilities providing direct care services are required to have a signed California Department of Public Health (CDPH) Form 530 on file for each non-employee individual who is paid for direct care services (i.e. independent contractors). To help facilities fulfill this requirement, starting June 13, 2024 all clinicians will be required to e-sign a digital copy of the CDPH 530 form in order to be paid for the shift. Facilities will have access to e-sign their portion of the form and download completed copies for their records. This feature is active for all shifts completed in California. Use Nursa's new digital CDPH 530 form as a replacement to your current process or in addition to your existing workflow as a backup. How do I fill out CDPH 530 forms? As a facility user for shifts in California, you will be able to easily sign and complete the CDPH 530 form when submitting your facility shift report.

Daylight Saving Time begins on the second Sunday in March, moving clocks forward at 2AM, and ends on the first Sunday in November, with clocks turning back at 2AM. The Nursa app seamlessly adjusts for these transitions, ensuring accurate shift report calculations for facility invoices. If you are approving shifts reports during the transition, the app will tell you that your actual hours will be accurately reflected on your invoice, whether an extra hour or one less. Note: Hawaii and Arizona, non-participants in daylight savings, remain unaffected.

Many facilities may require clinicians to take unpaid breaks. We know how those minutes also equal dollars when breaks aren't properly taken. So you can specify whether an unpaid break (lunch or rest break) is mandatory on your shift. Note: Entering break time is completely optional (but recommended if your facility requires it) and should only be used for unpaid break time. Do not add any paid break times, as anything added by this process will automatically be unpaid. Adding a Break Time When you’re adding a new shift: Tap Break Tap Create new Break Once you’ve created a break time, it will be available to use in the future, or you can create other break times as needed Enter the break time in minutes, e.g. 30 The break time cannot be longer than the duration of the shift, so make sure you add the shift time first Tap Save Break If you add a break time but then want to remove it before posting the shift, you will need to set the break time to 0, as once it’s edited, it cannot be removed Finish posting the shift Clinicians will see the required break time on the Shift Details when reviewing and requesting a shift. You are not able to edit the break time after posting the shift until after when you’re completing your Shift Report. The break time automatically populates on the Clinician and Facility Shift Reports. Clinicians can edit the reported break time, but they will receive a pop-up warning if they report less than the posted break time. Facility users will also receive a warning if the break was less than the posted required break, and you can correct any discrepancies on your Facility Shift Report. As mentioned above, break time is unpaid, so it won’t be calculated in the total pay when Shift Reports are submitted.
