 +===== Change Your Own Password =====
 +
 +Users have the ability to change their own password if required to do so. 
 +
 +If CareFree does not ask for passwords to be changed on a regular basis our recommended is for users to change their own password every 30 days or when they feel it is necessary to do so. This ensures that staff are accessing CareFree under their own user account and not logging in as somebody else.
