Appointments
Appointments are on-site events that the organization schedules to assist employees in complying with a component. Health administrators and health-facility managers can schedule an appointment for one employee or many employees. The appointment date, time and location are automatically sent to employees by email.
You can make a group appointment, which enables you to update or cancel appointments for many or all employees for a health component.
For group appointments, you set up a pre-defined appointment when you assign the component. Always use a pre-defined appointment for group scheduling. A pre-defined appointment is an appointment for which you previously specified a date, time, and location. Pre-defined appointments are automatically emailed to a group of employees at the time of assignment.
You can perform these additional tasks that are related to appointments:
- Viewing all appointments for employees
-
Send a pre-defined appointment to one employee, for example to a new hire
- Send a one-time (unique) appointment to one employee
- Update group or individual appointments
- Cancel group or individual appointments
Each action except viewing causes an email to be sent to the employees who are affected. The date and time cannot be changed for a single employee for a pre-defined appointment. A new appointment must be selected.
