You need to have a discussion with the care home. You need to ask the manager what is appropriate, have they done anything similar before and how was it set up. You should keep your client record cards as you would under any other circumstance, keep them in your possession and ensure that you comply with data protection law and industry requirements. Most importantly you need to make sure that you inform your insurers of the nature of the work to ensure that you have the correct cover.
