Getting Help
The Vocera system can be customized to provide users with a Help command to
help users learn how to use their Vocera devices. For example, the Help prompt
could direct users to a Vocera super user, an administrator, an internal Web site,
or a local help desk for assistance.
Action Recommended Voice

Alternative Forms
Get help Help.
Note: If your system does not have a custom Help prompt, when a Vocera user
says the "Help" command the system uses the standard Help prompt: "No help
is currently available."
For information on how your Vocera administrator can create a custom Help
prompt, see Providing a Custom Help Prompt in the Vocera Administration
Guide.
