Patient Status System
A standardized visual tracking system that lets staff see where a patient is in their care pathway — without verbal communication. Bottlenecks are spotted quickly, handovers stay seamless, and multi-unit visits remain coordinated.
Patient Visit Flow
Booked
Registration in progress
Patient scheduled or currently being registered. Staff enter or verify demographics.
Arrived
Registration complete
Front desk confirms identity. Patient is directed to the appropriate clinical unit for vital signs.
Waiting
Queued for consultation
Vital signs recorded. Patient waits in the queue to be called by doctor or nurse based on triage.
In Progress
Active consultation
Doctor reviews history, examines, and documents findings. The core clinical encounter.
Sent for Diagnostic
Investigations ordered
Optional step. Blood tests, X-ray, ECG, or other investigations ordered during consultation.
Return from Diagnostic
Results ready for review
Lab or radiology results available. Patient returns to doctor for follow-up interpretation.
Finished
Consultation complete
Doctor finalizes notes and discharges patient. Case remains closed until next visit.
Auto vs. Manual Updates — Some status changes happen automatically when you complete an action (e.g., entering vital signs may trigger Waiting). Others, like Sent for Diagnostic, require manual selection.
