This section allows you to create a new Mode of Communication on the patient record. As technology changes and you want to experiment with your communication options, you can add the new options into VetView. For example, if you want to try using Facebook Messenger service, it could be added as a communication type here.[screenshot of the Comm Log Setup tab]

VetView allows you to customize your Discharge statuses to match your hospital's workflows. The Discharge status is also tied in to certain automated events, and one of those triggers is an automatic deceased date if your patient is discharged under a deceased status. (Discharge can also trigger an automated sex change, but that is tied into a Document with that feature turned on, not the Discharge Status itself.) [screenshot of the Discharge setup tab]

Field | Description |
|---|---|
Status | The name of the status as it will appear in the drop down menu on the Discharge window from the patient record. |
Deceased Flag | This discharge status should mark the patient as deceased under Patient Details, with the discharge date as the deceased date. The discharge status will display a warning that the patient will be marked as deceased if you proceed. |
Default | The default discharge status for all patients. There can only be one default for the hospital, so setting this flag will change all other Default flags to No. This is the Discharge status that will load on the Discharge window automatically, but it can be changed to any other status manually. |
Active Flag | This discharge status is currently active and available. Discharge statuses cannot be deleted once they are added, but you can turn off the flag for any which will no longer be used. |

This has been moved to a new TPR Setup screen in version 5.0. See: [future link to TPR Setup screen]in 5.0 |
Although VetView does not allow for customization of the TPR layout on the medical record prior to 5.0, you can customize the minimum and maximum accepted values, and add notes regarding each of the values. This can be useful from a teaching perspective for students who may not be familiar with the normal ranges for these, and it can also prevent errors made by typos.[screenshot of TPR setup in 4.x]

Problem Setup
The Problem setup tab allows you to set the Value List (from the Value List setup under Catalog Setup) that Problems can be pulled from. You can also give the option to allow problems to be "free text" rather than only from the Value List that you set.[screenshot of problem setup]
