1: On the 'Client Overview' page, click on 'Phone Numbers'. 


2: Click on '+ Add'.


3: In the drop-down list, select 'Email'. 

 

4: Enter the client’s email address in the field provided. 


5: Click 'Save & Return'.

Adding an email address for a resident in a residential care facility   


Once you have located the resident, follow these steps from the Resident Overview page: 


1: Click 'Identifiers'. 


2: On the 'Resident Identifiers' screen, click '+ Add'.
