Add a note

Notes let families record information between visits (symptoms, questions, observations) and keep it with the patient’s .pemr record.

When to add a note

Good examples:

• “Fever started at 18:00, peaked at 39.2°C, responded to paracetamol.”
• “Cough worse at night; appetite decreased.”
• “Question for doctor: can we restart daycare tomorrow?”
• “Rash appeared after new detergent.”

How to add a note

1. Open the patient .pemr in CareView Family
2. Go to Notes
3. Tap Add note
4. Write the note (short is fine)
5. Save

Where the note is stored

• Notes are saved inside the .pemr bundle (as part of the patient record).
• That means the note can be shared back to the clinic by exporting an updated .pemr.

Share notes back to the doctor (optional)

If your clinic asks for updates:

1. Export an updated .pemr from CareView Family
2. Send it to the clinic
3. The doctor can import it into CareFlow Kids

Tips (make notes more useful)

• Add a date/time if relevant (the note itself is timestamped)
• Include measurements (temperature, weight, SpO₂ if measured)
• Mention what helped (medication dose, hydration, rest)
