Touchscreen Main Menu
Overview
You can decide which buttons (Apps, in the Care Menu) appear on the touchscreen of a Resident’s system, and set the order in which they appear.

Show Touchscreen
You can see the changes you made to the Touchscreen. Click the "Show Touchscreen" button at the top of the Touchscreen module window. It shows you a reproduction of the Resident's system, and even lets you operate many of the features. You will not be able to see what the Resident is doing on the system, nor will the Resident be able to see your screen actions. You can both be using the system at the same time without interference.
