Manually Check-In or Check-Out a Patient

A patient is normally checked in by scanning their ID card at the Shot Room Kiosk, and then is automatically checked out when they receive a shot. However, if there is a problem with the Kiosk, or the patient does not have their ID card, they can be manually checked in. Likewise, if a patient needs to be checked out without receiving a shot, they can be manually checked out. Use the following steps to manually check in or check out a patient.

1. Access the Shot Room Automation dialog.
    

2. In the Shot Room Automation dialog, locate the patient that needs to be checked in or checked out.
   
   
   
    

3. Once the patient is located, highlight that patient.
    

4. Select the proper Location in the drop-down list if you are checking the patient in.
   
   NOTE: The system will not allow you to check in a patient If a location is not selected. When a location is not selected, a warning message will appear when attempting to check the patient in.
    

5. Click the Check In button if checking the patient in, or click the Check Out button if checking the patient out.
    

6. A confirmation message will appear. Click the OK button.
