Family Search

 

To search for families in the system, on the main menu click on patient and then search family. Family search can also be opened from the patient registration screen when you want to include the patient in an existing family.

 

A search form will be displayed to you.
You can search for families from this screen by typing any combination of 

  • family name
  • patient name
  • medicare number

 

 You can also use the wildcard characters when searching.

 

If your search matched any records, then the families will be displayed in the grid below.

 
Click the "+" sign to expand and view the family members in the family. The head of the family is shown in blue color. You can hit enter on any searched record if the family search is opened from the patient registration screen. This will include the patient being registered to the selected family.
 

Context Menu Options

If you right click on any searched family a context menu will popup.

When you select this option, the selected family member will be made the head of the family. 

Cut / Paste

When you want to move one family member to another family select the cut option on the family member you want to move. Then right click on the family you want to move the patient to and select paste. 


You can also drag and drop the family members from one family to other with the help of the mouse.
