How Do I Print Doctors Orders?

Issue

I need to print the doctor's orders to send with my patient who is going to the hospital.

Environment

Kipu EMR, PDFs, Roles: Super Admin, Records Admin, Medical Roles, Feature: Manage Pharmacy Orders

Resolution

There are two ways to print out a PDF of the doctor's orders, the first option is a less detailed view, while the second option shows all the details of the order.

Quick Print PDF Option:

From the landing page, select the patient whose form you need to print and navigate to the Doctor's Orders tab.
In the top right of the chart select the single PDF icon with no pages behind it.
A new window will pop up with the patient's current medications list as a PDF that you can print out.

Print the Detailed PDF

A Super Admin, or a user with the ability to create PDF templates, will need to create the PDF package that will be chosen when pulling the PDF. To learn more about creating a PDF Package, click here.

From the client's landing page open the patient's chart and select the PDF icon with pages behind it.
From the Generate a PDF pop-up, select the correct package from the drop-down options and click the Submit button.
A new pop-up will confirm that the package is being pulled.
To locate the PDF select your Initials in the top right corner and go to Downloads.
If the package has not finished pulling you will need to refresh till you see the Complete status, then select the package under the Link column and you will receive the download of the package.
To locate your download:
- For a PC, if it does not show on your browser window, you can locate it with the File Explorer on your computer.
- For a Mac, click the Downloads folder on the Dock. If the Downloads folder isn't on the dock, open Finder and navigate to Users > (Username) > Downloads to find it.
The PDF creates a table of contents along with detailed orders that you can print out.
