Checking…
Do you just want to add a shortcut for Vitals that navigates to Patient
dashboard and Consultation? I am guessing you would want the behaviour of
dashboard/consultation to be different when someone is navigating via
Vital’s shortcut over Clinical shortcut.
By tied to location you mean, if someone logs into a location then only
show him vital’s shortcut?
Yes for your question about someone logging into a location and then only seeing/entering the vitals. So registration process is already completed earlier, but the patient is not yet seen by clinical providers.
Currently in Bahmni the individual display controls on patient and visit
dashboard cannot be privilege protected like consultation tabs (which can
be). But this should be something that can be tackled as part of making
dashboards context aware (like discussed in another thread by you).
Is suggest that the “cyclical workflow of repeatedly filling out one form
for each patient” scenario that happens at visit capture/triage desks is a
common thing, and is worth approaching it as its own unique thing (and not
just a customization of the patient and visit dashboard).
I agree about the common thing; at least for most (all) the clinics I know.
So I try to figure what my best options for now are:
Keeping the vitals capture together with the patient registration and establish/document a “manual workflow” for the users. Then at the registration counter only the first part of the registration is done and at the vitals counter the clerks will search for the patient again and need to enter the second half / vitals.
Remove the vitals capture from the registration process and add a dedicated consultation tab to the clinical dashboard? (I haven’t tried this yet, so not sure if I miss something here.)
