The Report Management tab lets you view, edit, and enter, as well as print note reports for Nursing Dietary and Nutrition Electronic Notes. Use the drop-down list in the upper right corner of the tab to select a note type. The Edit Area of the tab displays the note (if any) for the patient whose name is highlighted in the upper pane.
Notes are shared by all Results Viewer users–— that is, any user can view and edit any note entered by any other user. Additionally, each patient can have only one note of each note type.
