Care Provider: Group Posts On CareApp

Use Group Posts to easily share moments with more of your community in one go.

👋 Want to share a photo post with multiple families at once? Create a Group Post!

Group Posts are a wonderful way to share one moment with many families at once

Instead of posting separately for each resident or client, a Group Post lets you tag multiple profiles in one go — so all of their connected families receive it at the same time. One great moment, shared with everyone it belongs to, with half the effort.

They're perfect for:

  • Group activities and outings
  • Events where multiple residents or clients were involved
  • Shared moments you want multiple families to see

How to Create a Group Post

Creating a Group Post is just like creating a normal photo post — with one simple difference: when you get to the step where you tag your customer profiles, tag everyone you'd like to include.

Tip: There are two easy ways to tag multiple profiles:

  • Individually — select each resident or client profile one by one from the customer profile list
  • Using a Customer List — if you have a pre-made Customer List (like Choir Group or West Wing), just select it, and all the profiles in that group are tagged at once. Learn how to create a Customer List

How to Post a Photo

Care Provider: Post a Photo

A Photo post is the most popular post type on CareApp. A single photo shared with family can do more to reassure them about their loved one's wellbeing than any written update.

Administrators, Coordinators and Team Members can all create photo posts.

Note: Family members can also post photos if this has been enabled by the care provider.
