Defining a Family
Once a client has been entered into the HBDS, a family must be created when there is more than one person in the household and a Primary Caregiver has been identified. A family includes:• All immediate family members living within the home (i.e., parents/primary caregiver, siblings)•A live-in partner of the primary caregiver if the primary caregiver is not married
For the purposes of the HB Program, a family does not include the following persons:•Non-relatives residing in the household, with the exception of the paramour•A paramour’s child(ren)•Relatives residing outside the household
Checking if the Family Exists in the System
• Click on Clients > Family Search• Identify the Family member you are adding and
search to identify if they already belong to a family
• In this example, we searched for Bobbie Fake by his last name. We know it is the correct Bobbie by his date of birth and address. Notice he is not currently linked to a family because the family count is 0.
Checking if the Family Exists in the System
We are now ready to add Bobbie’s family. First, search for him by clicking on Clients (1) and then Client Search (2).
