Adding a Caregiver
Every person who will be receiving alerts or messages from the GrandCare system, or using the communication features, needs to be added to the system as a Caregiver. (This is a separate step from being set up as a user for GCManage.) Users with high enough security permissions can add and edit Caregivers. To add a new Caregiver:
- Open the Care Menu
- Click the "People" icon
- Click the Caregivers link
- Click the "Add New Caregiver" button
- Enter the information - it is important to fill in all the fields
- Click the "OK" button
