How to Add Connections
In order for a family member or friend to create a Storii account, the service provider has to send them an invitation.
To do this, you can go to the Service User's CareCircle and click where it says 'Connections'
From here, you will need to enter their email address or mobile phone number (must be a smartphone).
The family member or friend will then receive a text message or email containing a link and instructions for signing up for a Storii account. They can do this online. They can also download the 'Storii Family App' from the App Store or Google Play Store using their tablet or smart phone.
If you're looking to increase Connections for your facility, here is a wonderful resource full of instructions, promotional flyers, email templates, etc.
