NURSE PROVIDING HOME HEALTH CARE SERVICES WAS AN EMPLOYEE ENTITLED TO BENEFITS (THIRD DEPT).

The Third Department determined a registered nurse who worked for Human Care which provided home health care services was an employee entitled to unemployment insurance benefits:

Human Care maintains a list of registered nurses, designated as field nurse supervisors, who provide home health care services to its patients on an on-call basis. Human Care hired claimant as a field nurse supervisor following an interview and screening of her experience and license credentials. Upon hiring claimant, Human Care required claimant to sign a job summary detailing the various duties and responsibilities of a field nurse supervisor, which included completing clinical and progress notes, informing Human Care’s Director of Patient Services of any changes in a patient’s condition and needs and submitting all required paperwork to the Director within 48 hours of a visit. The job summary further stated that field nurse supervisors reported to the Director and were required to follow Human Care policies and procedures. Claimant was provided with Human Care’s handbook of policies and procedures. With respect to individual assignments, the Director would contact claimant when a client needed services and advise what services were to be provided. Claimant was free to accept or decline any assignment and, if she was unable to complete an assignment that she had accepted, Human Care would find a replacement. Claimant was required to complete and submit a written “base assessment” of the client to the Director for review. Additionally, Human Care set the fee paid to claimant for her services, which was not negotiable, and billed its clients or the clients’ insurance companies for claimant’s services.  Matter of Dillon (Commissioner of Labor), 2018 NY Slip Op 05386.
