Both the "Client Details" and the "Carer Details" screens have a link at the bottom titled "Emergency Card".
This is a really simple and useful system, which you might like to consider if you're not using it already - and if you have involvement with carers or people being cared for. Basically, the carer and the dependent carry cards which have a matching number on them. They look like this (carer's card shown):
In the event of either person having an accident, people helping them can call the number on the card and alert the organisation, and therefore the other person, to what has happened. It's a good way of people keeping their carer/dependent safe and informed, whilst not having to actually carry their details on their person. Plus, if anything should happen and the carer can't be contacted, it's likely that your organisation will be able to help.
Clients and carers can be searched for by emergency card number:
This makes it quick and easy to locate the relevant person on your Charitylog system.
