About Groups

Your administrator may have created one or more groups and defined you as a member.

Depending on your environment, a group can be organized by:

Each group name that is displayed in this list is a combination of the name of the facility with which the group is associated and the group name itself. For example, if you belong to a facility named St. Mary's Memorial, and your group is named Family Doctors, the group name displayed in this list is St. Mary's Memorial Family Doctors. This eliminates the possibility of confusion if you are a member of two or more facilities and a group of the same name is defined for each.

You can join or leave a group, display your list of groups, start a chat or broadcast with a group, or call a group, depending on what permissions you have been granted.

Some information on groups can be found in other sections of this document:
