Carerealm logs every meaningful action staff take against an area: diary entries created or edited, eMAR doses recorded, forms submitted, files uploaded, About sections changed, contacts edited, settings updated. The log is append-only — entries can't be edited or deleted.
Where the logs surface
Per- — open the area and click Activity Logs in the sidebar. Shows actions within that area only.
Realm-wide Activity Logs — for admins, Admin → Activity Logs shows actions across every area.
What each row contains
Date and time — when the action happened.
User — who did it.
Action area — which app the action was on (Diary, eMAR, Forms, etc.).
Action type — create, update, archive, delete, access, share, etc.
Action name — the specific event (e.g. "Diary entry submitted", "Medication administered").
Description — a one-line summary with relevant detail.
Who can read activity logs
Anyone with access to the area can read its activity log — visibility into "who did what" is part of the safeguarding culture. Realm-wide logs are admin-only.
Note — Activity logs are read-only. Even admins can't edit or delete a log entry. That's the point — the log is the audit trail.
