We understand that there are some days when the clinic may just be overloaded with work or there is a critically ill patient that needs to be admitted for emergency treatment. In such cases, it may not be possible to go through the standard procedure for admitting a patient. The good news is, we have taken this into consideration and you are able to quickly create a patient from both web and iPad:


From the web

1. Tap + Add Patient button:


2. Enter the patient Name and choose the treatment Template to start. If you do not want to add more details at the moment, please click Done:


Although the other required fields will be filled in automatically, we recommend you to click Show More Information button and check them:


3. Treatment Begin at and № of Flowsheets will be entered by default, but we advise you to check and edit these values as they cannot be edited later:


4. Also, to enable all the medication and fluid calculations, please enter the patient's Weight.


NOTE: If no gender option is selected on the Patient tab (highlighted in blue), the patient's gender will be set to Unknown (U):


5. Once ready, click Done.


You can then proceed with your treatment and later fill in the rest of the details as described HERE.


NOTE: The Whiteboard will be selected by default. To ensure that the patient is admitted into the right department we recommend choosing the appropriate Whiteboard with your initial patient creation.
