🩺 Why this matters
The Things to Do block is the heart of Careteam. It guides everyone—clients, families, and health providers—on what needs to happen next. Whether you're scheduling an appointment, adding a task, or assigning a form, this block helps you create shared visibility and shared responsibility.
Use it to:
Keep track of upcoming, overdue, and completed activities
Share clear instructions with the entire care team
Make coordination easy across organizations, roles, and settings
Empower clients and families to contribute and stay organized
🔍 Where to find it
Open the Person’s Action Plan
Scroll to the Things to Do block on the dashboard
Activities are ordered by due date, with overdue items clearly flagged
Use the Completed tab to view what’s already been done
🚀 What you can do in this section
➕ Add new activities
Click the + Add button to choose from:
Appointment – Add in-person or virtual visits (includes reminders!)
Check-in – Schedule recurring or one-time updates to monitor well-being
Form – Assign standardized forms like PHQ-9, GAD-7, or program-specific intakes
Task – Share to-dos with detailed instructions and linked resources
🛑 Note: Referrals now have their own dedicated block in the Action Plan. Learn more in the Services and Referrals guide (add link to that KB article).

Great for sharing updates like personal appointments, medication reminders, or family coordination
💡 Tips and things to know
