Adding a client to CAREWare is the first step for managing demographics, case notes, clinical data, services, and other client-level data. First name, last name, sex at birth, and date of birth are required when adding a client. The Add Client process can also include other fields configured by providers, such as medical record number.

How to Add a Client in CAREWare

1. Log into a provider domain and click Add Client in the left menu.

2. Enter the client’s last name, first name middle name (optional), sex at birth, and date of birth. If you do not know the client’s date of birth, enter an estimated date and check the DOB Estimated? box.

3. Click Add.
