IWeb First Responder Module User Guide |
The First Responder Physicians & Vaccinators menu allows users to search, add, and edit names of physicians and vaccinators for consistency in order to avoid data entry redundancy. The Physicians & Vaccinators menu has three links:
A physician is the primary care physician for a responder/patient and can also be selected on the responder record. A vaccinator is a person who administers shots and can also be selected on the vaccination record.
