# Notify appointment changes to staff
Comm.care makes it very easy to create repetitive appointments, but these appointments may need changes, perhaps once a week or even a month.
These changes can be minor, and you may or may not want to notify the staff, so Comm.care gives you the liberty to do that.
Let's say there is an appointment for Daily Activities for a participant, and the location is changed from the participant's house to their grandparents' place. In this case, you will need to notify your staff about the change in the location of the appointment, so you will need to '**Edit**' the appointment and change it to the new address.
For this, go to **My Organisation > Calendar > Choose the appointment title > Edit.** Then enter the changes you want to make.

Comm.care will give you two options while saving the changes: '**Save Only**' & '**Save & Notify**'.

And here you will choose '**Save & Notify**' to allow Comm.care to notify the relevant staff of the changes to the appointment via e-mail.
This feature can now save you and your staff from getting notifications that are not really required but only what you choose to deliver.
## Push notifications on mobile
The "Save & Notify" feature above sends **email** notifications. If your team also uses the Comm.care mobile app, they can receive **push notifications** — real-time alerts that appear directly on their phone, even when the app is closed.
Push notifications are triggered when:
- **Someone @mentions a staff member in a comment** on an appointment, Circle of Care, incident, risk, or feedback document — the mentioned person gets an instant alert with a preview of the comment.
- **A document is flagged** (red or yellow) — all Circle members and organisation managers are notified.
Tapping the notification opens the relevant record directly in the app — no searching required.
To make sure your team receives push notifications, ask them to **allow notifications** when the Comm.care app prompts them on first login. If they missed the prompt, they can enable it in their device settings.
