Overview of the Staff Profile
When a new employee’s role includes working with cases, this employee will require a Staff Profile. A Staff Profile is essentially a professional record that collects information such as: signature, credentials, phone numbers, hire date, and other information. This is the 2nd step for adding a new hire to the extendedReach system, following creating a User ID for the employee. For assistance in Adding a User ID, please see Related Articles.

- Supervisor: You can select which supervisor, if any, will supervise this staff member.
- Type: You can access the drop-down menu to select the staff type.
- Intake Worker: Check this box if this Staff Profile is for an Intake Worker only, indicating that this worker is only doing intakes so they will not be counted as a caseworker change in the stats.
- Does Not Perform Casework: Check this box if this Staff member will NOT be performing casework. This means the staff will not be available on the drop-down menu to complete activities and reports for homes and cases.
