Working with Sticky Notes

The Sticky Notes area on the right side of the To Do module allows you to enter informal notes for the selected patient. These notes are not designated as part of the medical record, and are generally not discoverable, except by subpoena.

Note: Only the first line of the Sticky Note is initially visible.  To display the entire Sticky Note, move your mouse pointer over the Sticky Note area or click View All/Edit.

However, because these notes can be changed or deleted by any other user who has access to the LMR, you may prefer to use other methods for recording more permanent patient-related information.

Click View All/Edit to display a new screen for viewing and entering informal notes for the selected patient. Enter information by typing text. Click Ok (ALT+O).
