Create and Share Care Notes

A guide to keeping loved ones informed in real time

Written by Jennifer Fairchild

Care Notes is an easy place to store all important updates for you and your loved one, so everyone stays on the same page.

You can create a Care Note in three ways:

  1. Type a Custom Note

  2. Voice Recording

  3. Automatically, via 'Completed with notes'

To search for a specific Care Note, you can filter by type or search by name at the top of the Care Note Module.

Create a Custom Note

To add a custom note, click the Plus Sign and enter all the important details.

If you need to edit a Care Note, click into the note and select the blue pencil in top right-hand corner.

Record a Voice Care Note

You can also add a care note by speaking it instead of typing. Tap the Plus Sign and select Record a Note, then just talk. The Avanlee app will transcribe what you say and clean it up into a note for you to review before saving. This is a good option if you'd rather talk through an update than type it out.

Since transcription isn't always perfect, it's a good idea to double-check the note for errors before saving it.

Marking an event "Completed with notes"

When you mark a calendar event "Completed with notes," the app creates a Care Note from what you entered. You'll see a message confirming this before you finish, so a new Care Note appearing that you didn't type from scratch is expected, not a mistake.

Add More Information

Need more information added to a Care Note? Open the Care Note and click the blue chat icon in the bottom right-hand corner to add a comment, making it easy to add updates or additional details without creating a whole new note. Each time a comment is added, the total count on the chat icon will increase. View the picture below, showing a Care Note with two additional comments added.
