Overview

Send a Community Message

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 messages appear as pop-ups 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
