In short

How do I automatically send a daily hospice census digest to my team?

WebRun reads the WellSky census every morning, tallies active patients by level of care and counts overnight admissions, discharges, and deaths, then posts a clean aggregate digest to the hospice operations Slack channel. Every department starts the day with the same current picture, with no PHI shared outside WellSky.

Questions, answered

Does the digest include patient names or clinical details?

No. The Slack digest uses aggregate counts only: total patients, admissions, discharges, deaths, and level-of-care totals. No patient names, diagnoses, or other PHI appear in the post.

How often does the census update in WellSky?

WellSky updates the census in real time as clinicians enter admissions and discharges. WebRun reads the live census each morning, so the digest always reflects the current state.

Can it run at a different time, such as an evening shift handoff?

Yes. The schedule is configurable, so you can run it at any time that fits your operational rhythm, including an evening handoff digest.
