Issues Resolved
Release 11.15.4 | |
Adding single day passing schedules from the Orders Widget | NextStep Home Page; Select a Client; Click Orders There was an issue when users added a single day schedule in the Orders Widget and entered it with From Day = To Day; previously, NextStep did not generate passes for that schedule. This has been resolved. When adding passing schedules from the Orders Widget, if you want to create a single day schedule, you now need to set From Day = To Day. NextStep will correctly default the end of the schedule to 23:59 on the To Day. Important Note: this only applies to agencies who use the Orders Widget to manage medications and treatment schedules. This update has not yet been applied for schedules added from the Medication Plan or from within eMAR directly. Continue to enter schedules as you have been in those modules until a change is announced with a future release. |
eMAR - recording medication and treatment passes | This release fixes several issues that were occurring with the eMAR around the concept of administering passes. Known Issue: If a user does not have the Pass Correction permission enabled, they will not be able to edit the Pass Administered On time when completing a pass. If the default time that NextStep prepopulates when the pass is selected is not correct for a particular pass, the user should deselect that pass, and ask a supervisor or a colleague who does have Pass Correction enabled to record that pass on their behalf, adjusting the Pass Administered On time as needed before clicking Pass Selected. All eMAR users should be able to correctly complete passes where the default Pass Administered On time is accurate regardless of their status with respect to the Pass Correction permission. |
