How to Use Smart Page

Smart Page should NOT be used for Code, STAT, Urgent or Priority pages. Instead, dial the page operator directly so that the paging system can give them the highest priority. Web-based Smart Page should be used ONLY for routine messages/pages.

Smart Page is a Stanford paging website that allows users to view and send messages; manage personal paging profile; and set,edit, and view on-call schedules.
