Tune notification thresholds

Per-user preferences set so the right people see the right alerts without noise.

Before you start

  • Admin role
  • Team members invited and approved

Steps

  1. 1

    Open Settings → My notifications

    Each user controls their own delivery (in-app and email) for five categories: morning huddle, high-risk resident, staffing gap, family update approval, and import failure.

  2. 2

    Set quiet hours

    Quiet hours suppress email outside the window; in-app still queues. Common: 9pm–6am.

  3. 3

    Decide who owns each category at the org level

    We recommend: DON for high-risk and family approvals; Operations for import failures; charge nurses for staffing gaps and morning huddle.

  4. 4

    Confirm marketing consent stays off unless asked

    Marketing email is opt-in only. AcuityRow never enables it during onboarding.

Common pitfalls

  • Turning off in-app alongside email means the user sees nothing — keep at least in-app on.
  • High-risk fanout respects role approval; pending users never receive PHI in notifications.
