In-Person Visits
Field Safety
All team members who go out into the community, and those who manage team members who go out into the community, need to download the Guardian MPS App during orientation. This is a mandatory function of home visits. The Guardian MPS App tracks your location, offers check in/out features, monitors the length of home visits and calls to check in, and offers a panic button. Download the app through the Mindoula Self-Service App. For more details, click here for the user guide*.
