How to Set Up Roles
This guide helps you set up and customize roles to match how your community runs. By defining roles like Caregiver or Activities Coordinator, you bring clarity, consistency, and efficiency to task assignments across departments.
1. Now it’s time to add your Roles!
A Role should simply describe the functions you want team members to perform. Things like Caregiver, Floor Nurse, Line Cook, Activities Coordinator, etc.
The system can be customizable to your specific community operational structure. For example, employees can be assigned to one or multiple roles, and roles themselves can span across departments. For instance, Jimmy can be assigned to Care Partner and Housekeeper Roles. Additionally, a Care Partner role may be assigned to both Resident Care and Dining Departments, per your set-up.
