The Ardens Diary Recall System allows practice staff to easily manage diary recalls for blood tests, injections, procedures and follow-ups. It offers the following:

  • A simple system for clinicians and administrators to set recall dates.
  • Alerts for reception staff to remind them what tests are due when a patient books an appointment or speaks to a receptionist.
  • Searches to plan future appointment requirements and identify patients due a recall.

The Diary Recall System Components 

The Diary Recall System consists of the following EMIS tools:

  • Data entry template to enter the follow-up date
  • Page or section in the existing Ardens templates to enter the follow-up date
  • Suite of searches to enable recall of patients with diary entries due
  • Protocol alert which displays in the pink alert box, alerting you of any follow-ups due
  • Protocol pop up reminder to alert receptionist of any diary entries due for the patient when booking an appointment
  • Protocol pop up which alerts a user to a diary entry where there has been a subsequent result recorded


Installation

If you are an existing Ardens subscriber this will already be installed, but may be deactivated if you have not completed the initial house-keeping process. There is no need to complete the house-keeping to start using the template, but you should not turn on the reminder "protocols" until house-keeping has been completed.


GP Practices that are not Ardens subscribers can arrange a remote demonstration by completing the online trial form
