Question: Is there an Audit Trail for Vitals?

Yes, to view who took vitals in the past you can go into the ACI under RX/Orders, view Past Meds/Orders, right click Vitals and then View and Audit. Step by step procedures are listed below:

  1. Log in as a TW user.
  2. Choose a patient.
  3. Go into the Clinical Desktop.
  4. Click the "Add new Order" icon.
  5. Click on the RX/Orders tab.
  6. From the drop-down menu in the Orders section choose Past Meds/Orders.
  7. Sort by Type. (Uou can sort a number of ways, but for this example we will sort by Type.)
  8. Scroll down to "Orders" and find "Vital Signs."
  9. Right-click on a Vital sign.
