# For the backup care assistant, broadcast to requested caregivers first, or only broadcast to requested caregivers

## In the backup care portals sometimes there are requested caregivers, you can use these settings to control how to manage this.

Navigate to the "Global Settings" under the More tab of the main menu:

Turn on the option "Broadcast to selected/requested candidates first", adjust any of the follow up settings and hit the Save button:

This setting also applies to non back-up care jobs, if you give clients the option to select candidates when booking a shift job.
