Overview
Public Alerts provide a way to notify staff members of important information about a client by displaying an alert in the client's record.
Note: The ability to view alerts depends on the permissions within the staff member's access role.
For clients who have a Public Alert, a warning will be visible on the top right of the Client Profile for users with the appropriate access to view public alerts. There is a count badge to indicate the number of alerts for the client.
When a user with the appropriate permissions to view alerts clicks on the Public Alert button, the user is taken to the PUBLIC ALERTS section of the legacy Clarity Human Services.
If a user hovers over the alert, a list of alerts for the client will be displayed.
Users can click the drop-down arrow to see additional information about a specific alert.
