The Clinic Dashboard

The Clinic Dashboard is your clinic's shared home page. It shows every tool you can open, what's waiting in each one, and a few team cards down the side. Get there by tapping the houndkit logo in the header or choosing Clinic Dashboard from the Go to menu.

Tool cards

Each tool your clinic uses, and that you're allowed to open, gets a card. Tap a card to open the tool. A few reference tools (Calendar, Docs, QA Auditor and Reports) sit in a slimmer row under the main cards.

Cards can carry two kinds of badge:

• "N open" (pink, under the name): how many items are open on that board, such as open tasks, labs or On the Way patients.
• A number in an amber corner dot: something needs attention. For example, chores due now, equipment due for maintenance, Hospital patients with an overdue treatment, directory contacts missing an email (on Records), or time-off requests waiting for approval (on Schedule, admins only).

Right-hand column

• Calendar: a month view with your clinic's events. If your clinic uses the Calendar tool, click a day to open it there and view or add events. Use the arrows to change months and Today to jump back.
• Tug of war: the team's current game. Answer right on the card, or tap + new to suggest one. It's also in Games, unless your clinic has switched it off. See Tug of War.
• Kudos: the latest shoutouts, if your clinic uses Kudos. Tap + new to send one, or view all to see the rest.
• Clinic Links: shared bookmarks for the websites your team opens daily, like your practice software, lab portals and order forms. Tap a link to open it in a new tab.

If your clinic uses the Clinic Feed, recent posts show under the tool cards on the left.

Adding Clinic Links (admins)

Clinic admins manage the Clinic Links card. Everyone else just sees the links.

1. On the Clinic Links card, tap Add.
2. Enter a name, the web address, and an optional note (for example "use your clinic login").
3. Tap Save, or press Enter.

Hover over a link to see the arrows for moving it up or down, the pencil to edit it, and the X to remove it. If your clinic has no links and no shared logins yet, staff won't see the card at all.

Why is a tool missing?

A tool only appears if your clinic has it turned on and a clinic admin hasn't limited who can use it. If you follow a link to a tool you can't use, houndkit brings you back here with a note saying it isn't turned on for you. Ask a clinic admin if you need it.
