Creating Departments

You create Departments in your organization to map staff positions and use in Security Users' profile. For example, your facility has an Accounts Receivable Department. You can create a new department in PointClickCare. After you create the department, you assign your staff positions to the department.

You can specify the departments you allow to care plan in Clinical. When you select the option, the department is in the list of departments that can perform care plan reviews.

Note

When you create a new Department, you need to activate the Department to the facility you want it available for use.

    • Single facility: Admin > Setup > Organization Setup > Pick Lists.

    • Multi- facility: Management Console > Standards > Financial Management > General Setup > Pick Lists.
