Generally users enter a new patient from an appointment booked in the diary. However, on the search screen is a button to click if you wish to enter a new patient.
Usually we recommend that you enter new patient details via the diary to ensure that the details are linked to the appointment that they may have. However there may be times when you simply wish to enter a new patient without using the diary. In this case enter the new patient via the Patient Details screen.
To enter the new patient simply complete as many of the fields as you wish and click the “Add” button. This will then enter the patient’s details in the system, then take you to their record. Alternatively if you change your mind, and do not want to enter the details simply press “Back”.
