Episode comments may be used to communicate general information, e.g., primary caregiver contact info, patient comprehension limits or preferred educational method, presence of animals in the home, or co-morbid conditions impacting patient behavior to everyone assigned to the patient. 

To add an episode comment from the patient's Episode Manager page perform the following steps: 

1) Click Edit on the toolbar. 
2) Select Episode. 
3) Add or edit text in the "Purple" Comments field. 
4) Click the Update Details button. 

Once an episode comment is saved, it is automatically attached to the task in Episode Manager, QA Manager, and the HotBox.
