How to Communicate via Messages and Announcements

NASTi allows easy, in-app communication to ensure all staff and admins stay in sync. Messaging offers two-way communication between two or more people within the community - employees and admins. Announcements offer one-way communication from admins. Announcements can be sent to full community, or by department, role, or admin permission set. Disclaimer: Refrain from entering resident specific information in communications due to NASTi not being HIPAA protected at this time.
