Keep organised by setting up your availability with a calendar schedule. Add in set break times, block out times for admin, leave or public holidays and show your availability with colour, making it simple and easy for a reception team to book in clients.Β 

πŸ“We highly recommend setting Allocation blocks to colour code your availability

πŸ’‘A Supervisor can create, edit and delete a schedule for a Case Manager. Many schedules can be created per practitioner, as long as these schedules do not clash

πŸ’Ž We suggest reviewing schedules as an annual activity, much like taxes and birthdays. Select a date that is easily remembered or has significance and set it as your schedule review deadline.

πŸ’Ž If you are starting out in practice, just signed up to a virtual reception team service or using the free coreplus online booking system (Client Portal), we suggest opening your schedule to longer hours so that you can capture more clients during these early phases.
