Medical Record
Medical Record (MR) is the screen that you should work from when dealing with patients notes outside of consultations. In this mode the system will make no record of date, place or doctor when the patient’s details are viewed. For this reason you should use Consultation Mode when consulting with patients, and Medical Record when dealing with paperwork.
You can open Medical Record by typing:
· MR from the main EMIS menu screen, or
· S from Consultation Mode
When you open Medical Record you will see the patient summary screen. This displays a command menu, list of active problems and of significant past problems: ….
….and then using Page down: current medication, due diary entries;….
….allergies and reactions; family history; and health screen, with BP readings, weight, smoking status, etc;….
Finally, at the bottom, the date of the last consultation.
