Patient Summary Tab

Patient Summary Tab

The Patient Summary tab allows you to see information about a patient at a glance, without having to dig into each episode.  The Summary tab can be customized with widgets that show the information most crucial to your area of responsibility, such as prescriptions, problems, patient reminders, and other pieces of the medical record.

Change Default Patient Page

If you would prefer to have the Patient Summary tab be the first tab to open on the Patient Record, and not the Visits tab, this option can be set under the User Profile by changing the Default Patient Record View to the Summary Tab.  

The layout of the summary tab can also be customized to arrange the widgets in whatever way you prefer.

Click on the Panel button to start adding widgets to the Summary tab.  VetView will remember the widgets you have displayed across every patient, and will also remember how you had them arranged.
