Steps to Add a New Consultation in EMIS Web
To add a new consultation in EMIS Web, follow these simple steps:
- Access the Consultation Screen: Click the EMIS Web menu, point to Care Record, and select Consultations. If no patient is selected, you'll be prompted to choose one.
- Select Consultation Type: On the ribbon, click Add and choose the preferred consultation style — header-based or quick note, depending on your organisation's configuration.
- Complete Consultation Properties: Specify the key features such as date, consulter, and location. You can set defaults for session duration to save time.
- Enter Patient Information: Use headings to add clinical terms, free text, or utilise Quick Codes for efficiency.
- Utilise Additional Features: Run templates, create tasks, or apply confidentiality policies directly from the consultation screen.
- Save Consultation: Once complete, click Save on the ribbon to finalise the entry into the patient's care record.
EMIS Web streamlines patient record management by allowing consultations to remain open while accessing other system areas. This flexibility enhances workflow efficiency and coordination within the practice.
