When you try to Get-Help of a Module or Cmdlet on PowerShell on macOS, you do not get complete help and you see a remark, "Get-Help cannot find the Help files", in this case you have a few options.
Option 1: Get Online help with -Option
You can add a -Online flag along with the help command, and this will open the help page on the web-browser.
Option 2: Use Update-Help command to download help files locally.

Update-Help -UICulture en-US-
