How to use the Message Center

 
 

The message center has been rebuilt from the ground up to work more like email.  It now has a forward/reply button and allows you to choose from a list any person in the system to respond to or send a note to.  In addition, you can now send a note to everyone simultaneously by choosing “Staff” from the list.  When you create a note by clicking on the New button, you select the date (usually today) you want the person’s note to appear in his/her list.  It can be today or any day in the future.  In addition, you can attach a note to a specific patient by clicking on the red button above the message field and it will tie your note to that particular patient. The Message Center appears on both the Main Menu as well as on the individual note layout.
