💡 Adding logs is available to all Care Office users, apart from the Audit and IT & Security roles. Body map logs and witnesses can’t be added in the Care Office yet. You’ll still need to use the Carer App for these.

Step 1: Choose the person and the log
Select Logs in the top navigation bar.
Select the blue Add Log button on the right-hand side.
Search for the person you’d like to add a log for, and select them.
Choose a category.
Choose the log you’d like to add.
💡 Can’t see a log? You’ll only see the logs that are switched on in your home’s log preferences. If every log in a category is switched off, including the custom option, the whole category will be hidden.
Step 2: Answer the questions
Answer each question, then select Next.
If you need to change an earlier answer before saving, click back into that question, update it, then select Next until you reach the end again.
Just like in the Carer App, any answers with a number, such as how much someone ate (for example, 75%) or a blood pressure reading, will automatically update the matching chart.
Step 3: Finish and save
At the end of the log, you’ll see the same options as in the Carer App: add media, change log perspective, flag for handover and link goals.
Check the date and time the event happened, and change them if needed.
Select Save Log. Your log will appear in the Logs list in the Care Office.
💡 Adding several logs? Select Save and Keep Logging instead of Save Log. This takes you straight back to the same category so you can add another log. To choose a different category, select Back.
What does “change log perspective” do?
This changes how the log reads, so it’s written in the voice of the person you’re logging for. You’ll see a short message explaining this when you select it.
Quick summary
Go to Logs, select Add Log, then choose a person, a category and a log.
The questions and options are the same as in the Carer App, and number answers update charts automatically.
Logs and categories switched off in your preferences won’t appear.
Body map logs and witnesses can only be added in the Carer App.
Use Save and Keep Logging to add several logs quickly.
