The Calendar shows your follow-ups by date. Every note you set a follow-up date on — call this family, visit the hospital, chase an unpaid bill — lands here, so your week is one page instead of a scattering of notes across families.

In the sidebar, Calendar. It appears when the Notes module is on and you have permission to read notes.

The Calendar in Month view for November 2026, with Month, Week, Day and List buttons and a Today button in the top right, and several follow-ups placed on their dates, two of them struck through to show they are complete.
Month view. The struck-through ones are done; the rest are still waiting.
Follow-ups are not created here. You add a note on a family or a member, check Follow-up and give it a date — and it appears on this calendar.

The Four Views

ViewBest for
MonthThe default on a computer. The shape of the month at a glance.
WeekTime slots, with a line showing the current time.
DayOne day in detail.
ListEvery follow-up in the year, one after another. The default on a phone.

The arrows move one period at a time; the double arrows jump a whole year. Today brings you back. The view you pick isn't remembered — it opens on Month each time.

Reading the Calendar

Each entry is the note's subject, sitting on its follow-up date and time exactly as you typed it. A follow-up with no time shows at 12:00 AM in Week and Day views.

Hover over one for a preview with the family's name and the body of the note. Completed follow-ups stay on the calendar, struck through and faded, so you can see what you have cleared as well as what is left.

Working Through Your Follow-ups

Click an entry to open the note (you need permission to edit notes; without it, clicking does nothing). From there you can:

  • Check Complete — it stays visible, struck through.
  • Change the Follow-up Date to push it to another day.
  • Turn Follow-up off entirely, which takes it off your calendar and leaves an ordinary note behind.
  • Edit the subject and the body.

The family or member name at the top is a link, not a field — a follow-up can't be moved to a different family here. Clicking it closes the editor without saving and takes you to that family's Notes tab.

Clearing the Follow-up Date marks the note Complete automatically. There is no Delete in this editor — delete a note from the family's Notes tab.

Whose Follow-ups You See

Your own follow-ups, plus any a colleague marked Broadcast to everyone. Another user's ordinary follow-ups never appear on your calendar — not even for an administrator, and there is no way to look at someone else's. A private note shows only on its author's calendar.

A broadcast follow-up gives everyone their own copy. Completing it, or moving it to another day, changes only your calendar; the subject, type and note text stay shared.

Dates and times are your organization's wall-clock time, stored exactly as typed — a follow-up set for 9:00 AM reads 9:00 AM for everybody, wherever they are.
