Inbound Call Notifications

1. An inbound call will search Curve Hero to match the home, work or cell phone. The search looks at contacts, non-patient and patient, as well as users in administration. An inbound call will create a notification (as long as the notification is activated for a user). These will show a caller ID number, the patient picture (if available), the patient name, the Head of Household (HOH), the phone number the call is originating from, and patient status..

NOTE:If multiple family members share the same inbound number, the family name will display and then show the Head of House (HOH) information in the notification. If multiple Head of House (HOH) share the same number, the notification will show as an unknown caller as there is no certain way to indicate the correct caller.

2. The notification does not require action from the user or disrupt the current task. It is simply a notification. If you want to load the patient information for the caller, simply click on the blue link in the notification. The patient will load in the Sidekick and their Profile page will load. If the user is in the Scheduler when the link is clicked, the patient information will load in the Sidekick and the scheduler module will remain.

3. To answer the call, simply pick up the phone. Depending on how you have setup GoTo Connect for the devices, all lines may ring or only one line may ring.
