Step 1 of 5 · Room-based tasks

Tasks attach to rooms,
not people.

Without Rounds.One

Tasks assigned to people

A CNA starts a task. They get pulled to another room. The task is forgotten. Next shift has no idea what was started.

With Rounds.One

Tasks live in the room

Room 114 needs a fall check. Any staff member on any shift can see and complete it. The task persists until it's done.

No handoff required. Nothing gets forgotten.
Room-based view — every task visible to all staff, all shifts
Step 1 of 5
Step 2 of 5 · Shift continuity

Shift changes.
Nothing gets lost.

Without Rounds.One

Verbal handoff fails

"I think Room 114 was done?" — no one knows. Pending tasks get lost between shifts. Documentation is incomplete.

With Rounds.One

Handoff required: NO

Next shift logs in. They see exactly what's done and what still needs attention. Complete visibility, every shift.

The work happens — and the proof survives the shift change.
Shift continuity — no verbal report needed. Everything is already there.

Step 3 of 5 · CMS sustainability tracking

30 days. 60 days. 90 days.
CMS wants to see the fix worked.

Without Rounds.One

The follow-up falls through

A corrective action is written. Everyone means to check back at 30 days. But it's a busy facility. The date passes. No evidence the fix was ever monitored.

With Rounds.One

Automatic due dates. Timestamped evidence.

Every corrective action generates automatic 30/60/90 day check-in reminders. Staff document pass/fail with notes. Every check is timestamped.

No manual follow-up. No forgotten dates.
Sustainability tracking — automated checks, pass/fail recording, complete audit trail
Step 3 of 5
Step 4 of 5 · Staff acknowledgment

"I told them" isn't proof.
A timestamp and signature is.

Without Rounds.One

Verbal. Gone by morning shift.

You gather staff. You explain the corrective action. People nod. A surveyor asks for proof. You have a verbal memory and maybe a sign-in sheet.

With Rounds.One

Electronic sign-off. Legally defensible.

Staff receive acknowledgment requests. They read and sign electronically — name, timestamp, date. Stored permanently. Pull it up in seconds.

Complete audit trail. Every staff member, every action.
Automated notificationStaff receive requests via secure in-app message
Per-staff trackingSee who signed and who hasn't
Timestamped recordsName, date, time for every signature
Surveyor-readyAll acknowledgments export automatically
