Our handbooks are fully customized for your practice and optimized with our recommendations and expertise. From the welcome statement to PTO policies, we work with you to make your handbook yours.
You know your practice. We know the laws that affect it. It’s a match made in healthcare heaven.
Handbooks only work if they’re up to date. If the law changes and your handbook doesn’t, you’re like a knight wearing cardboard armor — about to have a very bad time.
HR for Health responds to changing policies so you don’t have to. If you’ve been manically tracking employment law, you’re getting hours of your life back. If you haven’t, you’re suddenly safe from legal disaster.
A legal document needs agreement on both sides to come into force, and that agreement needs to be documented to work.
That’s why we include documentation and integrated e-signatures into our handbooks. Our attorneys love it. The attorneys suing you won’t.
Take a deep breath… Your HR’s done. It’s automated. Digital. Secure.
Sounds like heaven, right?
Our recommendation assistant is like a butler that went to law school. It looks at your handbook, your practice, and your local legal situation and makes all the suggestions you wish you’d thought of.
Our assistant helps you cover all your legal bases, write down the policies you need, and even include some culture-building policies.
Our employee alerts make sure your employees know when the handbook has been updates, and keeps them informed of any action they need to take.
Manager oversight means you know if and when they handle their business. So you can take action to protect your practice.

Every year thousands of practices are attacked with expensive lawsuits that not only cost a lot but cause irreparable reputational damage. Simply keeping compliant allows you to mitigate nearly 99%* of HR-related legal claims. *1% of legal claims require beating someone with a stick.
Your employee handbook is a guide to everything employees need to know about your policies, processes, expectations, and company culture. It’s the easiest way to distribute required notifications and critical information. It also gives new employees a jump start in learning the company culture.
Every employee handbook should start with a few simple sections. The company mission, vision, values, and story, workplace guidelines, your code of conduct, employee rights and obligations, behavioral and professional expectations, and policies for leave and time off. If you want to include more, go for it!
Employee handbooks fulfill three main purposes. First, they protect your practice from legal trouble—once an employee signs the handbook, they’re agreeing to the rules within (as long as they’re compliant with federal, state, and local laws). Second, it sets expectations of behavior and ability. Finally, it helps bring your practice together by establishing your culture. For more info, check out our blog on handbooks!
When a disgruntled employee or former employee sues you, it often comes down to you and your practice doing something different than legal regulations or practice rules. By showing that they know exactly what they signed up for (the handbook) and that your practice followed through (record-keeping and documentation), you can eliminate the threat from 99% of employment lawsuits.
Because we were founded by healthcare law experts. For them, this is a passion. We maintain a knowledge vault that we update every time healthcare laws and regulations change at every level. Then our software automatically flags that change for every relevant practice the next time they need to update their own handbooks. Finally, our attorneys make sure those changes make sense for your practice.
Employee handbooks don’t have to be dry and boring. In fact, a captivating handbook is much more useful in terms of instilling culture and encouraging employees to actually read the thing. Use realistic examples, workplace anecdotes, and a conversational tone. Creative design and images can also enliven your handbook.
The easiest way to distribute your handbooks is in a digital format that automatically confirms receipt with a tool like e-signature (HR for Health does that!). Whatever way you choose, you should communicate any changes in policies and procedure, confirm receipt, and make sure you continue to correct, update, and adapt as your practice changes and new rules and regulations roll out.
