Overview
Messages can easily be sent to individual Residents in a community, or to everyone in a community, using the Community Messages feature. It's like sending a text message from the community to the system screens of Residents within the community. The message appears as a pop-up on the Residents' screens, and remain visible until they're acknowledged by the Resident.
Sending a Community Message
- Log in to the Online Care Portal
- Select Message Center
- Select the checkbox for individual Residents or the whole community
- Enter a subject heading for the message, and the body of the message itself
- If you'd like to include an audio tone when the message is delivered, choose one from the list
- Select the Emergency Message setting, if applicable - an alarm tone will sound when the message is delivered, and a red "Emergency Message" title will appear on the message.
- Click the Send button
Receiving a Community Message
The message pops up on the designated Residents' screens, and remains there until it is acknowledged, by pressing the Acknowledge button. Or press Remind Me Later to temporarily remove the message and have it pop up again a short time later.
