How To Set Up Notification Thresholds
This article will show you how to set up notification thresholds. The 'Notifications' feature allows a clinician to create triggers that will alert them when a client's vital signs are above or below a specified range, or if readings increase or decrease over a specified period of time. You can set triggers around absolute values or around a percentage change.
