Backup of resident files - File Rescue

User manual

The resident record backup application, also known as File Rescue, is a very useful software for facility care staff.

For each active resident, this software retrieves some of the documents from the resident's file and attaches them in a PDF document.

In short, the File Rescue software is essential to have access at all times to certain resident data when the SOFI software is no longer available (e.g. in the case of a network failure), more specifically in the event that the resident must be sent by ambulance.

The following is a list of the documents generated by this software for each of the active resident files in the SOFI software:
