Patient comments can be added at any stage to record unstructured notes about the patient. All comments are displayed in the patient record in chronological order.
Step 1
Select the Patients option from the main menu.
Step 2
To add a comment for a patient, open the overflow menu (“...”) on that patient’s row to view all available actions. If your user role includes the required event permission (see Understanding Event Permissions), the Add Comment option will be displayed in the menu.
Step 3
Select the Add Comment action and the patient comment form will appear.
Step 4
Add a comment in the mandatory Free Text Comment field and select Save to store it. The form will disappear.
Step 5
To view the comment you have just entered, go into the patient record-view (if not already in it) by selecting the “eye” icon on the appropriate patient row in the patient list-view. The comment should be the latest entry in the Comments table, just after the Specimens table.
