Q1 2026 RELEASE

August Health Platform Updates

Our Spring 2026 updates bring voice charting for caregivers, AI-powered intelligent service plans, and more. Here’s what’s new across the August Health platform.

Major new releases from August Health

Move-Ins

Start every move-in with the most relevant tasks

Move-in task lists can now be tailored by admission type, so your team only sees what’s relevant, automatically. Less noise, faster move-ins, and more time to focus on the resident in front of them.

Care Track

A new way to chart care

Turn your caregivers' words into charted actions. Speak naturally, in any language, and August Intelligence handles the rest—capturing task completions, exceptions, effort levels, and notes in a single interaction.

Care Track

Add notes to resident observations

You can now allow your caregivers to add a written note when recording an observation, helping to capture the details that matter. Notes show up right in care progress, so your team always has the full picture.

Billing & Payments

Simpler payments, smarter follow-up

Payer portal users can now pay with credit and debit cards. If something goes wrong — like insufficient funds or an expired card — the system tells your billing team exactly what happened and how to resolve it.

EHR

See who followed up with an incident & when

When a follow-up action on an incident is marked as completed, the staff member’s name and timestamp appear directly on the action, so you can quickly see who did what and maintain clear accountability.

EHR

New sorting options for incidents and notes

Incidents and notes can now be sorted by date created, date updated, or date of event, with sort preferences saved across sessions.

EHR

A faster way to navigate assessments

Assessment navigation now displays subcategories, making it easy to jump right where you need to go.

Care Track

A simpler vitals charting experience

Vitals are now charted individually with a dedicated button instead of being bulk-charted, providing a clearer experience for caregivers.

Care Track

Customize retroactive charting days

Admins can now customize the number of retroactive charting days per community.

 eMAR

The order view you need, faster

Order filters are now organized into categories, making it easier to find exactly what you need and keep med passes moving.

Never miss a med from the last pass

Missed medications from the previous med pass now appear on the current pass, so med techs can catch and address gaps right away.

New integration with Xero

Sync journal entries from August Health Billing & Payments directly to Xero. Entries are created and updated nightly, then finalized when you close your books, reducing manual work and keeping your records up to date.
