Assign Columns to Chairs in Patient Flow
Do your assistants want to have dedicated columns on your schedule? Here's how to set that up in Patient Flow.
- Open Patient Flow; go to Utilities > Patient Flow or press Command Shift F.
- Make sure that no patients are seated; the steps below cannot be completed when patients are seated in chairs.
- Click the up/down arrow icon on the upper right corner of the Patient Flow chair to open the dropdown menu.
- Select Always Place Patients in This Chair from Schedule Column option.
- Select the schedule column from the dropdown menu.
- Once you have assigned a column to a chair, a lock icon will show on the top left of the chair.
- The lock icon means that all future appointments in the selected column will show under this chair.
If you do not assign a column to a chair, then when an assistant seats a patient from a column, the rest of that column will shift to his/her chair in Patient Flow.
