Admission FAQs

Why is the Admission screen not working on a new or freshly migrated installation of VetView?

This is possibly because you have not set up your default client types for owner, RDVM, and clinic.  

Go to the hospital setup screen (Navigation->Hospital Setup->Hospital Setup tab) and look at the first Header underneath the hospital address called Client Type Setup.  You will need to assign the appropriate client type for each of the owner, RDVM, and clinic client types so that the admission screen can load correctly. 

Save your changes by scrolling back up to the top and clicking on the Save button that now appears at the top of the Hospital Setup Window. 

How can I schedule multiple visits without having to enter in the patient information again?

You can create a second pre-admission using the current patient settings by cliking on the Add Another Admission button.

This will open a blank pre-admission in a new tab at the top, but keep the existing patient and owner.

You can also schedule multiple appointments against a single episode.  For example, you can have a separate drop off and pick up appointment, and multiple appointments with different services within the hospital for an inpatient.
