🎞️ View video tutorial: Reviewing a patient's preventive care screening compliance
If your TELUS Collaborative Health Record is set up for preventive care tracking, from the Summary area of a patient's chart, you can track compliance on a number of preventive care measures. If the patient is due (i.e., non-compliant) for a preventive care test or vaccine, the item is flagged with a yellow background.
When you send patients for tests, receive test results, or administer/record vaccines, in the Preventive Care area, you update the corresponding item with the test/vaccine date. This way, the patient is no longer flagged as requiring the test or vaccine.
Steps
1. Open the patient's chart and navigate to the summary area (at the top of chart, click the Summary icon).
2. Expand the Preventive Care section. A list of preventive care tests and vaccines display.
💡 Tip: Don't see the Preventive Care section? No problem! You can customize your summary view to display this section. See Customizing the patient summary view.
3. To update a preventive care test or vaccine, click the item.
4. Using the following table, update the item, and then click Save.
📌 Note: The data fields available differ for each preventive care measure.
