# Role permissions matrix

> Customize which pages Managers and Staff can access at your facility.

By default, ImaraCare ships with standard **Manager** and **Staff** page lists. Administrators can tighten or expand access per facility.

## Open the matrix

Go to **Settings → Role permissions** (or Security / permissions tab depending on layout).

## How it works

* Each row is an app **page** (for example eMAR, Billing, HHSC reports)
* Toggle pages on or off for **Manager** and **Staff**
* **Administrators** always have full access — the matrix does not apply to them

## Common patterns

| Goal                              | Suggestion                                              |
| --------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------- |
| Caregivers should not see finance | Turn off Billing, Charges, Bookkeeping for Staff        |
| Lead caregivers need visitors     | Enable Visitors for Staff                               |
| Float nurses need eMAR only       | Minimal Staff set: Residents, eMAR, Incidents, Calendar |

## After you save

Users may need to refresh or re-navigate for sidebar changes. Active sessions pick up new permissions on the next page load.

## Not a substitute for training

Hiding a page does not remove legal responsibility. Train staff on what they must document regardless of UI access.

See [Roles and permissions](/getting-started/roles-and-permissions) for defaults.
