Physicals Page
On this page:
Use this page to add or view athletic and normal physical exam results for multiple students. You can enter results for individual students or mass load information for a group of students.
The mass load is a helpful tool to quickly enter the typical results for a group of students. Then you can update the exam results as needed for the students who did not have the typical results.
You may not be able to edit information for prior days. The Medical Configuration's Allow Update on Prior Days field specifies the number of prior days you can update. You can always add referrals and enter follow up information for existing referrals. You may be able to edit existing notes, comments, and referral comments if the configuration is defined to allow editing of notes for locked office visits.
