Sending and receiving messages about orders and results

When you place an order, you might see a field called Notify Results. From Notify Results, you can choose who receives messages about updates to the order, and results.

Depending on your organisation, you can:

• Send alerts to your mobile, or another clinician's mobile

  When Nervecentre receives an update about an order, or results, Nervecentre sends an alert to you, or another user. For example, to a clinician in a team such as H@N Hospital at Night. A multidisciplinary team of doctors and nurses working collaboratively to manage patient tasks in the out of hours periods.. When you receive an alert, a notification appears on your mobile.
