Health Profile

  1. To pull up a person's record, start by typing their name in the "name" field. As you type, the field will auto-complete, displaying the name and a photo of the person below.

    ​Note: only enrolled campers and active (hired) staff will appear in the autocomplete.

    Additionally, you can select the purple "Health Center" button from the Medical tab on a person record.

  2. After selecting the name, it appears on the top left with camp info below, health history on the right, and visit counts shown for the season and past 72 hours.

  3. Below the name, you can enter a treatment, log, or MAR entry. The "Card" functions like the lower tab "Log and Treatment" entries but includes additional options like temperature, pulse, blood pressure, and respiratory rate.

    • Treatment (Visit): a treatment/visit is an unexpected visit to the medical center. Scrapes or injuries, headaches, etc.

    • Log: a log is an expected visit to the medical center. Normally, this is used for check-ins or follow-up visits.

    • History: the person's history of interactions with the med center, as well as medication changes, will be listed here.

    • MAR: this button is for administering medication, or noting if a medication was missed, refused, or skipped

  4. Once you save a log or treatment, it's accessible in camper and staff records, and in log and treatment reports. After saving, you're taken back to the initial screen with the auto-complete name box, making it easy to enter information for another person.

For any unscheduled visits, you can search for the person in the health center and then add in a treatment/visit as needed.

  1. Find the person's record by entering part of the name in the Health Profile search bar. In the record window, click on the "Treatment" button.
