Home Safety & Risk Assessment Scheduling

Q: Can residents still receive reminders if they prefer SMS or phone calls?

Yes. The automation can send reminders through email, SMS, or other channels depending on the resident's preference stored in the database.

Q: Will the automation work with our existing assessment database and calendar?

The automation integrates with your current tools like Airtable, Google Calendar, and Gmail. Your existing data is preserved and synced automatically.

Q: What happens if an assessment is missed or not completed by the due date?

The system flags the missed assessment and alerts staff immediately so they can reschedule. Compliance records are updated to reflect the delay.

Q: Do we still need staff to review the scheduled appointments?

Yes. Staff review the automated schedule daily to catch any exceptions, special requests, or conflicts that need manual attention before confirmations are sent.

Key features:

Monitor assessment due dates and flag overdue or upcoming appointments automatically

Check assessor availability and propose optimal appointment slots without manual back-and-forth

Send confirmation emails to assessors with resident details and special requirements

Schedule calendar entries and resident reminders without duplicate data entry

Log assessment outcomes and update compliance records in a centralized system

Alert staff to missed or overdue assessments for immediate follow-up

How The Automation Works

The full workflow, from trigger to completion.

1. Assessment Due Date Reachedtrigger

The automation checks the assessment schedule daily and identifies any resident whose assessment is due or overdue today.

2. Fetch Resident & Assessor Details

The system retrieves the resident's profile, assessment type, special requirements, and a list of available assessors.

3. Check Assessor Availability

The automation queries to find free slots for available assessors in the next 7 days and ranks them by proximity to the due date.

4. Propose & Book Slot

The automation selects the best available slot and creates a calendar event, then sends a confirmation email to the assessor with resident details and any special notes.

5. Send Reminders

Automated reminders are sent to the resident 3 days before and 1 day before the scheduled assessment.

6. Log Outcome & Update Compliance

After the assessment, the assessor submits results via a form or email. The automation logs the outcome, updates the compliance record, and sets the next due date.

7. Alert on Overdue or Missed

If an assessment is not completed by the due date, a alert is sent to the Operations Manager with a list of overdue residents for manual follow-up.
