Share Emergency Contacts between siblings
Currently, sibling emergency contacts do not update one another. If the emergency contacts for one sibling are set or changed, I would like there to be an option that allows the user to share those emergency contacts among the siblings. Nine times out of ten, siblings will have the same exact contacts and I think it's too repetitive to have parents update each child's emergency contacts individually. A share button/setting would be ideal in these scenarios.
In addition to this, the confirmation email template does not allow you to insert a placeholder to indictate the specific child for which the form was submitted. The placeholder "user_regarding" that is available in the Reminder email template should also be available to use in the Confirmation email template.
Sorely needed. Parents have to submit emergency contact forms for each child right now. As anyone running a school knows, the more forms required, the more chasing you have to do. Please implement this!!!!!
This would be wonderful. We need addresses on those emergency contacts too!
We need this! Please add.
It only took 6 years for this to be under consideration

This would make things so much easier and cut down on repetitive data entry and risk of an error. This seems like something that would have been implemented long ago!
Grateful for the consideration can't wait until is implemented. Might want to merge these three ideas with this one which will add another 30 votes.

I can't believe this has been on the docket for 6 YEARS
For the love of all the is right in the world, please get this implemented.
So happy this is final Under Consideration!!
This is necessary...parents do not get it (not matter how many times they are reminded) that adding emergency contacts for one child doesn't enter for the other(s).
Oh look! Here I am again, looking to see if anything has happened with this, and still no luck... Please please please put this on the list to implement!
Still no movement on this? Please add this option. Some parents have a LOT of potential emergency contacts, and it's so frustrating to have to add them all individually to each child.
PLEASE! I just had to change a sitter for a family of 4....totally not worth the time to do all that. Just a radio button to click like when changing an address to share with all family members.
Is there any hope of this being considered? We have families with as many as 5 or 6 children with us. Not only is it time consuming to change the same information multiple times, but it also leads to errors being made and then we aren't sure which number is the correct number. This then takes time both on the admin end and parent end to clarify.
Parents are very frustrated by this feature or lack of feature, in profiles and as a consequence, don't like onMessage. I'm surprised Blackbaud doesn't give this more attention.
I would like the parents emergency contact information to be shared with childern they are related to. We have Magnus Health integrated. It pulls the emergency contact information from the parent profile.
