Patient Locator and Status

Patient Locator and Status

New Functionality from the new Clinical Toolbar in TouchWorks which allows an assignment of the patient’s location and status as part of tracking a patient through a clinical visit. This allows the physicians and other clinic personnel to know which room a patient is in.

• Both appear in:
  • Patient Schedule
  • Floating Toolbar
  • Clinical Desktop
  • Encounter Summary

Patient Locator

This will be created specific to the clinic. Therefore if a clinic has exam rooms 1-11, we will create not only a waiting room locator, but a locator for each exam room. This will also include a locator for a lab, imaging, procedure room, etc. if a clinic has such rooms.
