Printing forms from Case Notes

You can print single forms, or all forms, as needed. For example, you might need to print forms when a patient is transferred to an external care provider.

Nervecentre doesn't record in an audit log who has printed forms.

The printout contains:

  • When the printout was made, and who created the printout

  • The patient's name and demographics

Each form on the printout shows:

  • The form's name and status

  • When the form was created, and who created the form

  • A table showing the fields completed and the value they contain

    Incomplete fields are not shown on the printout.

A form might include clinical notes and observations. The printout:

  • Includes observations as a paragraph

  • Does not support clinical notes that contain images, documents, or body maps

    If a form contains one of these clinical notes, the printout states ‘n images’, where n is the number of images, documents, or body maps.
