AIM is committed to the delivery of Person-Centered Services. Employees are expected to uphold this philosophy by ensuring that each person's needs, preferences, strengths, and goals guide all aspects of care and support. This includes promoting independence, encouraging choice, and advocating for the rights and dignity of every person served. Failure to adhere to these professional standards may result in corrective action, up to and including termination of employment.
Employees must promptly report suspected policy, procedural, or regulatory violations. Concerns involving the rights or well-being of a person supported or an employee must be reported immediately to a supervisor, AIM On-Call, or a member of Administration and documented in writing. If a concern involves the Chief Executive Officer, the employee must contact the Compliance Officer or, if the Compliance Officer is unavailable, the Chief Operating Officer, who will take appropriate action, up to and including, notifying the Board of Directors. AIM will protect the confidentiality of all reports to the extent possible and practicable.
At the time of hire, every employee is informed of AIM’s confidentiality policies and must sign a Confidentiality Statement. In the course of their work, employees may have access to confidential information regarding the people we serve, family members, employees, and others. Employees must protect that information in accordance with AIM policies and procedures, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), and other applicable state and federal requirements. Failure to comply may result in disciplinary action, civil liability, or other legal consequences. Protected Health Information is individually identifiable health information, including demographic information, that AIM creates, receives, transmits, or maintains and that relates to an individual’s past, present, or future physical or mental health condition; health care services provided to the individual; or payment for those services.
