How does Jointly work?

With Jointly you can create a circle of care for the person you are looking after. Once you have set up your Jointly circle you can start using Jointly to organise care. You can use it on your own or you can invite other people to join you and share the care.

Jointly features include:

• Homepage: See latest activity at a glance

• Profile: Store useful information about the person you are looking after and have it available to access any time at a click of a button! Make a note of their date of birth, condition and caring needs, likes and dislikes or anything else you may think is relevant.

• Group messaging: Communicate with everyone in your Jointly circle at a touch of a button! Simply post a message or upload an image. Members of your circle will receive a notification and can respond.

• Tasks: Keep organised and on top of things by using tasks and task lists. Simply create a task and assign it to any member of your Jointly circle, including yourself, and monitor its status.

• Calendar: Create date/time specific events and invite anyone in your circle. You can also use the field provided to invite people outside your Jointly circle.

You can keep tabs of all planned events in Jointly's calendar while at the same time sending and accepting invitations in your personal calendar.

• Notes: You can use Notes to store a wide range of information and add images or document attachments. This can include bills and information about the household or how someone is feeling.

• Medication: Use Jointly's Medications feature to keep track of current and past medication of the person you are caring for. You can also upload an image to quickly recognise a medicine.

• Devices: Receive, store and share messages from connected health and care devices.

• Contacts: Jointly stores the contact details of the members of your circle and also allows you to store more useful contacts so that you can access their details anytime, anywhere!
