Easily communicate with clients, relatives and family caregivers via text message
Create a client in the Admin Cockpit
The quickest way to get started is by creating a test client. To do this, log in on your PC as an Admin.
Let's get started! 🚀
- Add a test client in the Admin Cockpit (step-by-step instruction: How do I create clients?):
- Enter "Peter" and "Parker" as first and last name
- Add your own mobile number under "Phone number"
- Click on "Add client"
- You have now successfully created your test client "Peter Parker".
Optional: Adding relatives or family caregivers
After adding a client, you can add relatives or family caregivers in the client profile:
- In the Admin Cockpit under "Clients", click on the three vertical dots and then "Edit client"
- Scroll to the bottom of the window to "Relatives"
- Click on "+ Add relative"
- Enter first and last name, as well as a mobile phone number
- Click on "Save changes"
- Done! 🎉
Switch to the client network and get started
- Switch to the client network:
- Click on your profile picture in the top right-hand corner and then on "Switch to client network"
- Click on "Peter Parker"
- Write a test message:
- For example: "Hi Mr. Parker, here is the new care plan. Personal care is now scheduled 3 times a week. Does this work?"
- Send the message
- Also send a test document or picture, e.g. a care plan, by clicking one of the icons next to the input field
- Now check your mobile phone. You should have received a new text message:
- Open the message. There should be a link in it
- Click on the link
- Now enter the last name of the client you created i.e. "Parker"
- Reply on your mobile phone: "Yes, that works. Thank you."
- Take a look on your PC in the conversation with Peter Parker:
- There should be your message "Yes, that works. Thank you"
- Done! 🎉
If you added the phone number of a relative to the test client, they will also be included in the conversation!
