Caregivers

Adding a Caregiver Every person who will be receiving alerts or messages from the system, or using the communication features, needs to be in the Caregiver table, which is in the People module of the Care Menu. This happens automatically, in most cases, when a person is given a user account. (See the instructions for adding new users). Only those people who will receive rule alerts, but not log in to the Care Portal should be set up as Caregivers following these instructions.

This picture is attached to all communications sent to the system, to identify the sender. Click on the picture to change it by uploading a photo from your computer.
