How do I send an SMS?
You can send SMS messages using a template directly from your Clinical System. Templates need to be created by a supervisor. Please see our SMS Templates guide in the Configuration Console.
You can also send ad-hoc messages, either through the User Console or through the Patient Overview Window.
