What Is Considered?
Section titled “What Is Considered?”The route planner uses the following logic:
- Today’s appointments only — Only appointments for the current day are included
- Only appointments with patients — Appointments without an assigned patient are skipped
- No duplicates — If a patient has multiple appointments on the same day, the address is included only once
- Chronological order — Addresses are sorted in the order of the appointments
Tips for Mobile Therapists
Section titled “Tips for Mobile Therapists”- Schedule appointments chronologically: Create your appointments in the desired order so the route follows the optimal driving path.
- Use the horse’s location: For horses, the barn location is used — make sure to store the barn address for the patient, not the owner’s address.
- Check in the morning: Calculate the route in the morning before you head out. This way, you have the complete daily plan as navigation on your smartphone.
