We’ve done the planning groundwork. Give your team a clear path forward.
When a storm approaches, every unanswered question lands somewhere—usually on you. Which visits can change? Who needs priority care? What should staff tell clients? When is it time to stop service?
You shouldn’t have to write policies, draft messages and coordinate backup care while conditions are getting worse.
Beyond Bark’s General Storm SOP gives you a prepared framework and premade communication scripts, so you can spend less time starting from scratch and more time leading your team.
The difficult questions are already built in.
This 32-page resource helps you prepare for details that are easy to overlook: roads outside your service area that affect travel, clients who cannot return home, animals needing timed medication, failed camera monitoring and backup caregivers who haven’t confirmed responsibility.
Inside, you’ll find:
Premade client messages for monitoring, preparation, service changes, suspension and recovery—with separate wording for your full client list, scheduled clients and clients with specific care needs.
Clear staff communication guidance so managers can explain assignments, restrictions and next steps consistently.
A staff-readiness checklist to help you confirm preparation before anyone begins a route.
Weather-specific procedures covering snow, hurricanes, wind, flooding, smoke, heat and cold.
Decision points and backup-care planning to help your team recognize when the plan needs to change.
Built around Spot it. Say it. Shift it., this SOP helps turn decisions that live in your head into a process your managers and team can follow—supporting safer, more consistent care as your business grows.
The structure, scenarios and sample wording are already developed. Add your company’s contacts, local safety thresholds and service policies to make the plan your own.
