📝 Overview
This guide demonstrates how to set up hours for multiple providers in ChiroHD. You'll learn how to configure schedule columns, assign time blocks, customize colors, and account for special schedules, including lunch breaks and different provider requirements.
Scenario #1: Removing Lunch hour
Removing the 12-1pm hour from a providers schedule.
Scenario #2: Adding Special Colors for Specific Appointment Types
Adding color blocks to a providers schedule so that the front desk knows to only schedule certain appointment types during that time.
Reminder: Color coding does not prevent any booking outside of specific appointment types. It's just a visual indicator on the calendar.
Scenario #3: Massage Therapist Hours
Only one person per hour can be seen, so I would use the 1 column and remove the hours for lunch. Save.
Scenario #4: Calendar for a Specific Room or Modality
Schedule can allow 2 people to be scheduled at a time during those specific times so I would choose 2 columns when setting up my hours.
Scenario #5: Provider Can See More Patients on Tuesday
To allow more people to be able to be seen, change the column amount and click on the times you would like those changes.
Scenario #6: Setting Schedule with Future Start Date
Starting on a certain date, you would like the changes to be made. Click the start date first, then make the changes and Save.
✅ Key Takeaways
Multiple providers and modalities can be configured with custom hours and patient columns.
Use color-coding to assign special times and easily distinguish schedule types.
Columns represent how many patients can be scheduled simultaneously.
Manual override lets staff book in closed/blocked slots, but patients cannot self-schedule in those times.
Future schedules can be pre-set to activate automatically on a specified date.
📌 Conclusion
Setting up multiple provider hours in ChiroHD is a flexible process, allowing for individual calendars, unique working hours, lunch breaks, and even special appointment and resource scheduling.
