Admit a new resident

For Manager, Owner

  1. Open Home, then Residents, and tap Admit a resident.
  2. Fill in their name, room, date of birth, funding and the date they were admitted, then tap Add resident.
  3. The admission checklist opens below. Tap the circle beside each item as it’s done. Tap Not applicable on an optional one that doesn’t apply.
  4. When every item is done, tap Mark checklist complete.

If they had a pre-admission assessment, its item links to it with Open it.

When it’s done

You see “added — work through the admission checklist below”, and the checklist shows each item with its due date.

If it doesn’t work

  • Add resident stays grey: the name and the date admitted are both needed.
  • You started a checklist by mistake: on New resident checklists, tap Remove this checklist, then tap it again to confirm.
  • It says the DoLS Tracker row wasn’t added: the resident is saved. Add their row on the DoLS Tracker from Home.
