Your role

Nurse

Your day as a nurse at a clinic. You take each patient's vital signs at triage, send them on to a clinician, and carry out the nursing tasks the clinicians order.

Kila describes the role: “Triage, vital signs, history and nursing care for patients with a visit open in their branch.” You read a patient’s allergies, conditions and vital signs while they have a visit open at your branch; the clinicians’ notes and diagnoses are theirs.

Kila opens Clinic › Triage: “The next patient, their vital signs, and on to a clinician.” Waiting lists the patients to triage. Tap one, or tap Next: (1) and the name of the next one. Nursing tasks (2) is the second tab.

Triage for Mercy Akinyi, nurse: Next with the next patient's name (1), the Waiting and Nursing tasks tabs (2), and the patients waiting with their number, age and wait.Triage for Mercy Akinyi, nurse: Next with the next patient's name (1), the Waiting and Nursing tasks tabs (2), and the patients waiting with their number, age and wait.

Needs a manager

Reading the notes and diagnoses. They are for practitioners. If your work needs more, the owner decides, under Clinical staff by role: Clinical privacy.

Why can I not see the doctor’s notes? Nurses read the allergies, the conditions and the vital signs. The notes and the diagnoses are for practitioners: Clinical privacy.

A patient’s readings are an emergency. Kila says so, and the patient goes to the top of the queue: Triage a patient.

Can I see a patient who has no visit open? Not their clinical details. They need a visit open at your branch: the desk adds them to the queue.
