Chat Room

Does anyone use the chat room? I see it yet when I go in I am the only one there. Is it only available during certain hours? I didn't see it last night.

    @@Alex Brecher people still can't find the button for chat! I know that people want to use it, but we need easier access. I am not much into chatting but I know that people used to announce a time

    I didn't know that the chat room was an option again. I'm on vacation but when I get home, I'll make it a point to put up posts in the evenings when people like to chat. You'll have to take the time

If you click on Patients and in the drop down you will see chat.

We had a chat room then it was removed and and about a month ago it was announced as back. At the time you bad to get there via the link(no button) so most people don't know how to access it. I will look around for the button as I know there are people who want to use it.

Yeah there is nobody in there. I keep going in at different times but I don't think anyone knows about it or they don't like to chat.

I am not much into chatting but I know that people used to announce a time and people did use the chat function previously.

The link to the chat room can be found in the top site navigation bar under PATIENTS:

I'm on vacation but when I get home, I'll make it a point to put up posts in the evenings when people like to chat. You'll have to take the time zone factor into consideration.

If anyone wants to use it, put up a post that says you would like to chat so it shows up in new posts, Then open another window and do what you want to do. You'll have to see if anyone comes in . the old chat room had a door bell that let you know someone saw your post, and came in to chat.

Hello new to this some one come talk to me
