This message was e-mailed to all staff on August 27. Below you will find the same message to serve as a reminder to complete this important request.
The Heartland Staff Handbook has been updated as of July 1, 2012 and is now available for all staff to read and become familiar with. All previous versions of the Staff Handbook should be discarded or archived. The handbook also contains a Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) Privacy Notice for staff to read.
After you read through the handbook and HIPAA notice, you are required to complete a web-based read receipt form that confirms you’ve read both of these documents. Do not print off a paper form and sign it—complete the web-based form. When you click on the link to the web form, you will need to enter the username and password that you use to login to the Employee Dashboard. You will then be prompted to complete the read receipt form. If you don’t fill out the form in a timely manner, you will receive a friendly e-mail reminder to do so.
Note that the handbook is in PDF form and contains bookmarks that allow you to navigate through the chapters and headings. By clicking on an entry title, you'll be taken directly to that entry. You can also click on the 'triangles' next to the bookmarks to expand the view to include subtopics of that chapter. The PDF is indexed, which means that you will be able to quickly conduct keyword searches to find what you are looking for. The PDF can be viewed in Mac Preview or Adobe Reader. Adobe Reader will provide additional features such as the ability to highlight and keep comment notes in the document should you choose to save it locally to your computer.
