How to Add a New Patient
Ensure you are on the Laboratory Queue page after logging in. Locate and click the Request Inv button at the top-right corner of the screen. This will open the Request Investigation form. In the form, use the search bar to look up the patient by name or ID. If no matching record is found, proceed to add a new patient. Click the "+" icon beside the search bar to open the Add Patient form. A patient ID will be automatically generated. Complete the form by filling in the patient’s details (such as name, age, gender, etc.) After entering all required information, click Save. The new patient’s details will be added to the database and will be available for investigation requests. Note: In the Laboratory section, this is the only way to add a new patient. Patients cannot be added directly to the queue without initiating a Request Investigation.
