Data Section

The top of the data section (area A - figure 1) contains information to identify which student is currently being administered. This information can also be used to help care for student in different ways such as determining medication dosage.

Visit View

This view (area C - figure 1) is where the office visit information is maintained. This view is the main view of the application. It will be used the majority of the day. This view provides the means of adding and updating office visit information.

Visit Date/Time Date and time student arrived in the nurse’s office.
Time Out Time the student left the nurse’s office.
Reason Reason the student came in the nurse’s office.
Details Provides for more detail explanation of why the student came into the office. For example, if a student injures their left shoulder the reason can be reported as “Bodily Injury” and the detail can be reported as “Left shoulder”.
Released Indicates where the student was released to.
Contacted Indicates who, if anyone, was contacted about the office visit.
Treatment Detail information about what treatment was given.
The two fields at the bottom of the visit view contain information that shows up for every office visit.
Medications Indicates medications the student takes on a regular basis.
Medical Alerts Information to alert the nurse about anything that is important to know about the student, anything that may effect the treatment. This information is shown in red so that it can be easily seen.

Schedule Follow-up Visit (area G - figure 1)

This hyperlink is a special feature to provide an easy means of scheduling follow-up visits. The advantage of using this feature (vs. just adding a new office visit) is that this feature will automatically copy information from this visit to the follow-up visit. Also the two office visits will be linked together. To take full advantage of this feature it is recommended that the information in this visit be completely entered (especially the treatment) before the follow-up visit is scheduled.

Immunizations

Contact

The Contact data view displays a considerable amount of information to make it possible to contact any party necessary. This information can only be viewed in the Nurse Aide module. Use the School Administration System to modify the data.

History

The History data view displays information about prior office visits. The view is very similar to the Visit view except that the data cannot be modified. Use the Review Action View to modify historical information.
