Add a Patient to the Shot Room

Before a patient can be used in the Shot Room, they need to be added to the Shot Room module. Use the following steps to add a patient to the Shot Room.

 

  1. Access the Shot Room Automation dialog.



     

  2. In the Shot Room Automation dialog, click the Add Patient button.
     

  3. In the AddPatientForm dialog, search for the applicable patient by typing into the Last Name, First Name, and/or Chart Number fields as needed, and then clicking the Search button. The system will then display the patients that meet the search criteria.

  4. Once the applicable patient is located, highlight that patient.



     

  5. In the Enter Patient ID# field, enter a Shot Room ID Number for the patient. It is recommended that the patient's Chart Number is used for consistency, however, and valid ID Number can be used.

    NOTE: To check the validity of an ID Number click the Check Number button once the ID Number has been entered in the Enter Patient ID# field. If the ID is a valid number, a message will appear stating the number is valid, and you can click the OK button.
     

  6. Once a proper ID has been entered, click the Add Patient button and the patient will then be listed in the Shot Room Automation dialog.
