  • Click the Orders button from the Main Menu. A menu will pop up right underneath that, and from there you will select Add / Edit Orders.
  • From Point of Care select the Orders button.

  • In the large text box on the top half of the screen, type in the orders.
  • Spell Check option - If you click this box, any words or names where the spelling is questionable, there will be a red squiggly line beneath the word/name.
  • Left Message Received button - You can date and time stamp the order by clicking this button.  A text of data will appear that will show the current day, date, employee name, with this text: "LEFT A MESSAGE FOR DR. X WITH."  You will then be able to enter the rest of your text.  
  • The pre-typed text will be displayed like this:  "03/04/14 04:15 PM  MINNIE MOUSE, PT LEFT A MESSAGE FOR Dr. JOHN DOE WITH" 
  • To the left of the box where you type the orders, there is a button with a large T on it. This button allows you to see orders that your agency has entered as standard orders, and to select them rather than having to type frequently used orders. To use standard orders view the article Add [T] Box Items.
  • You can date and time stamp the order by clicking on Received Order. This will stamp the order with the current date, time, who is writing the order, and who gave the order (this one needs entered by you).
  • Click the Save as Pending Order button in the upper right. Notice that when you click the Save button, the order goes into the lower left panel, which is labelled Pending Orders.
  • Click on the new order in the Pending Orders panel.
  • Note that, if your order needs to be dated for the upcoming/new certification period, you can use Applies to Visits Starting: and put in the first date of the new cert period. This will date the order for the new certification period.
  • Click the button labelled Create Order. This indicates that this is a standard verbal order requiring a signature from the nurse and the doctor. A window will open with the print preview of the verbal order, which includes the agency information, doctor information, patient information, the orders, nurse signature, and a place for the doctor’s signature. 
  • To print this page, click the Print button in the upper left.
  • IMPORTANT: Once you print this document, you will need to mail or fax it to the doctor.
  • Close the print window. When you close the print window, you will see that the verbal order has now moved to the right panel, labelled Show Verbal Orders During the Past 125 Days. Orders on this side should be those that have been mailed.
