Resident Info

To the left the resident’s image displays. If the image needs to be updated, follow the prompts and click on the Save Image button.  The resident Status will display as Active/Inactive/Onboarding. If the status is Active, then the resident is Active within the facility and prescriptions can be dispensed and medications can be administered. Inactive status can be set for residents when they no longer require their medications to be managed on this platform. Onboarding status is used when transitioning residents into the Strong Care platform. Onboarding residents will not have their medications show up on the administration round. Nursing or Administration staff usually update this image.
