How do I print a patient's chart or certain sections of the patient's chart?

You can print the entire chart or pick and choose individual portions of the chart to print.

1. Navigate to the patient's chart and click the Actions drop-down. Select Print Patient Chart as shown in Graphic 1.

Graphic 1: Actions Menu - Print Patient Chart 

Additionally, you can click on Print chart located in the top right corner of the Summary tab as shown in Graphic 2.

2. Check the boxes next to the section you wish to print. To select specific flowsheets, growth charts, active/inactive medications, or encounter notes, click on the dropdown arrow next to that section to select your preference (See Graphic 3). When printing encounter notes, you can print up to 50 of the most recent notes. If you wish to print a note that is not within the most recent 50, you will have to manually navigate to that encounter and print from there. A window will display which will allow you to check/uncheck certain portions of the chart in order to print (see Graphic 4). You can Select all, or select none. Clicking none allows you to select individual sections to print, instead of the patient's entire medical history.

3. You can also print individual sections of the patients chart from the patient's Summary tab. To the right of each section is a small print symbol (see Graphic 5). You can print each of these sections individually, if you choose.
