The Client Inquiry and Caregiver Application web forms are completely customizable, allowing you to ask the questions that are important to your office.

Once configured, a link to the form is can be added to your company's web site to allow potential clients or caregivers access to the form.

First thing we have to do is create the topics and questions you want to appear on your caregiver employment application.

If checked, the applicant cannot save the web form without providing an answer to this question.

Second thing we have to do is configure the Caregiver, Client or Office Staff Application form.

titleSetting up the Application Form...

Configuring the Application Form

The Client and Caregiver web inquiry/application forms are configured in the Agency Office Module, Home tab, Portal optionCustom Forms option.  This configuration determines the visual appearance of the form, as well as the questions and text that will appear. Each inquiry/application form is configured independently of the other.

Inquiry/application forms can be configured for Clients, Caregivers and Office Staff. Multiple additional forms can be set up under the "Additional Web Intake Forms" tab. (For example, you may likely wish to have different sets of questions for employees applying to different positions and save these applications under different categories.)

The following demographic information questions are always included in the form:

  • Name
  • Address
  • Contact information (Phone, Cell, Email)

The following fields on the setup form allow you to configure the appearance and questions:

Field Names

Field Descriptions

Form Title

The title to be displayed at the top of the web page

Role

The type of person applying (Client, Caregiver or Office Staff).

Category

Optionally choose a default category that the Inquiry/Application will be added as.

Instructions

Additional text to be displayed at the top of the form, below the form title. Use this section to provide additional information and instructions to your prospective clients or caregivers for completing the form.

Notification Email (Optional)

Specify an email address that will receive a message every time someone completes this form.

Minimum Accept Score

Certain questions can be assigned a score value that will be counted if the applicant answers that question. By assigning score values to key questions and specifying a minimum acceptance score, you can ensure that important questions are answered. If the total score of the application is less than the minimum acceptance score, the application's status will be marked as "Rejected." (This action will not prevent you from turning the "Rejected" applicant into a potential client or caregiver, but it does separate them from those who have passed the "Acceptable" score threshold.)
