Patient connections
How do you connect with a patient in Karify? What do you do if you can’t find a patient in Karify or want to connect another clinician? This article describes creating connections in Karify.
To access a patient’s record, you need to create a connection with that patient. You can only connect to patients who are members of your Healthspace and if you must have the required role in Karify. If you do not have the required role to connect to patients, contact the administrator of your Healthspace.
It depends on the roll your account has if you can add a connection to a patient yourself.

Problem: I can’t find my patient
It is possible that your patient is not yet a member of the Healthspace. If you are an assistant or administrator of the Healthspace, you can check this using the following steps. Contact your administrator if you need access to this feature.
Click Admin.
Under Admin, go to the Clients tab. If you cannot find your patient under Active Members or Tasks, he or she is not a member of this Healthspace.
Check whether the patient has been invited to the Healthspace by clicking Open Invitations.
- If your patient has not yet been invited to the Healthspace, click Send Invitation to invite the patient to the Healthspace.
- If your patient has been invited using the wrong email address, click Withdraw Invitation and send your patient a new invitation using the correct email address.
- If your patient has been invited using the correct email address but has not accepted the invitation, he or she receives an automated email reminder after three days and again after seven days. Of course you can also send them your own reminder at any time. Contact your patients if they still have not responded after reminders should have been received.
