There may be times where your relief does not show up to relieve you at the end of your shift. Hopefully, they would have called the agency and called off work so a replacement could be reached. But, there are times when no call is made. The best answer is that you would follow the company's policy when this situation happens, but you would not leave your client until another Personal Care Aide arrives.

"If I was working a shift and my relief did not show up, I would follow the company's policy for when this happens. If the policy specified that a supervisor was to be called, I would call my supervisor. If it specified I should call my relief first, I would call my relief. What I would not do is leave my client's house until a replacement arrived."
