The Quick Access List

This list is compiled of user-defined items that are chosen from the full list. Once this list is setup, it is the same for all users.

You can remove items from this list by clicking the [ - ] of the selected row. To select the row in order to remove, click the actual item description and it will highlight the row and expose the [ - ] button.

To select an item for the patient, click on the row indicator area and save the chart.

Clearing Patient Language/Ethnicity/Race

There are two options to clear the selected item. You can click the [ X ] button on the drop down box or you can use the keyboard by pressing the DELETE or BACKSPACE keys.
