    We have created custom Health Forms (WS\OF\HR\HF\CF) for both IHPs and emergency action plans. We give View access to non-nursing staff so these staff can view/print the IHP and/or EAP from the student's profile. We also use the IHP indicator, so when staff click on the Indicator it will say the description of the type of plan(s) the student has. (turn on indicator for each entity WS\AF\SI).

    I like the idea of emergency action plan populating so they are readily available to staff, but think it would need to populate in Gradebook so teachers can easily see it. Not all staff members are using the Student (WS/ST) pathway for Skyward access, so a popup or display in Emergency Info would not reach everyone.

    I would suggest maybe adding the ability in Health Forms (WS\OF\HR\HF\CF) to be able to select/customize display options of each form you create-- Ex. selection to "Display in Emergency Info" and/or "Display in Profile" and/or "Display in Gradebook"
    So the selected Health Form type would display an indicator/link on the Emergency tab (WS/ST/TB/EM/TB/EM), on the student's Profile (blue "i" button or hyperlinked student name), and Gradebook so teachers will be able to see it.

    I believe there are legal implications of allowing a delete feature on a health medication record. Use filters to not display voided records. You can also select Ranges to not print voided records on data mining reports. Maybe check with your district about a training database which is very helpful to test things.

    Maybe consider adding a Reason Dose Not Given code of "Parent Administered". It will zero the quantity out, but you can change it back if you are tracking inventory. I would prefer to document that I did not give it versus documenting someone else's name as giving it on my account.

    You can already add attachments in Health Conditions, Physical and Injury. You can also add these three types of attachments from All Health tab.

    Agree attachments in other places would be helpful, especially vision, hearing and scoliosis.

    When you Enter by Homeroom (WS\OF\HR\EH) or Enter by Class (WS\OF\HR\EC), try using the Add Health Screenings box. This was added later because of missing required reporting fields in the Add Vision Records and Add Hearing Records. There are more default options that may solve your issue.
    There are no defaults/fields for near vision for us in Texas.

    For Hearing defaults you can add whatever thresholds you need, default 25db for each threshold, and as you add for each student can Edit the Threshold table to change the db or uncheck the passing box.

    This already exists under the Office pathway. Make sure your nurses have access to WS\OF\HR\TB\IF
    Using the Health Contact Info tab in Office/Student Profile will let them Edit Health Contact Information (Alert Box information and Provider information) but it does not have the Emergency Contacts on this pathway.
