I'd be interested to find out too. It would be nice to have a way to pass on non-emergent info. 3 more wake ups for me, Wed, Thur, and Fri are minimum day for the

Our district uses Hazel Health. I am in N. Cal. I was not involved with the set up, but I'm sure you can google it and get a phone number. Good luck, hope this
