Doctor's Icon in Patient Flow

Doctors are assigned an icon that displays within the Patient Flow screen when they have a patient waiting. The icons have the following meanings:

  • A large blinking or revolving icon indicates the doctor needs to see the patient first. Note: The icon begins revolving after one minute.
  • A small icon displays for patients that are waiting for the doctor. When the patient moves to first position, the icon changes to large and begins blinking and revolving.
  • If more than one doctor needs to see the patient, multiple icons display.
  • If a clinical staff member selects to Urgently Request Doctor, the icon will revolve and jump up and down in Patient Flow.
