Users

Overview Users are caregivers who are authorized to log in to the Online Care Portal. Only people with User accounts may log in, use the Care Menu, engage in most communication activities with Residents, view data, and set rules. It is not necessary to have a user account in order to receive rule notifications, or to video chat with the Resident. The User Role assigned to a user's account determines the features and capabilities available to that user.

Creating a User

Users can only be created by users who are admins at some level. Users can create new users with roles at or below their own level:

Distributor Admins - can create users with the role of Distributor Admin or below

Group Admins - can create users with the role of Group Admin or below

Account Admins - can create users with the role of Account Caregiver or below

Is is a recommended best practice that each Account have only one Account Admin, so Accounts Admins are not allowed to create users with the role of Account Admin. See your Group Admin if this is necessary for an Account.

Resident Admins - can create users with the role of Resident Admin or below

This is rare. Typically Accounts have Account-level users rather than Resident-level users.

• Click the "Manage Distributors" button on the Dashboard.
• Click the "Actions" tab.
• Click the "Add a new Distributor" button.
• Enter a name for the Distributor.

This is a required field.

• Enter the remaining information.

Note that the email address entered receives alert messages when system status for any account under the Distributor changes to "down" or "up".

It's recommended to use an email address for an email distribution list as the Distributor email, rather than an email address for a single person.

• Click the "Save Distributor" button.
