Recording it, not just doing it

Kentucky states no deadline we have verified, so this sheet does not invent one. It records the orientation, what the resident needs in an evacuation, and who is responsible for them — which is what the rule above asks you to hold. The Kentucky staff training record is the other half of the same request, and both feed the Kentucky readiness sheet.

It stays on your device

Mobility and assistance needs are health information about a named person. Nothing typed here is sent anywhere, and the shared building record keeps only the date an orientation happened — never what the sheet said about the resident.
