These features can only be utilized by caregivers with a Caregiver PIN.

Care Notes

Care Notes are a way for people in the caregiving network to exchanges messages and notes about the resident. These notes are designed to be seen by caregivers, and not by the resident, for those situations in which the notes include sensitive information that would be better not to be seen by the resident. (Other features of the system, Messages and Letters, are designed for communication between the caregivers and the resident.)

See Care Notes for more information.


Care Plan

From the touchscreen caregivers can utilize the Care Plan to track specific care tasks called "Services", by checking them off as they are performed. Services can only be checked off for the current day. Services can be added within specified times in which they should be performed, or can be set to "Any Time".

See Care Plan for more information.
