School clinic – recording visits

The School Clinic app lets the nurse record every visit a student makes – symptoms, treatment, medication given and any onward referral – against that student's confidential health record.

Where to find it — App drawer → Clinic → Today's Visits.

Opening a visit

When a student arrives at the sick bay, the nurse creates a visit record. The student's standing health summary – allergies, chronic conditions and current medication – appears at the top of the form so the nurse sees the critical context before treating.

  1. Open Clinic → Visits and click New.
  2. Select the Student. EduPrime loads their photo, class and health flags.
  3. Set the Visit time (defaults to now) and the Reason – illness, injury, routine medication, follow-up or screening.
  4. Record Presenting symptoms and any vital signs – temperature, pulse, the affected area.

Treatment & medication

In the Treatment section the nurse records what was done and what was given.

  1. Enter the Treatment provided – e.g. wound dressed, rested 30 minutes.
  2. Under Medication, add a line per drug: name, dose, route and time. EduPrime warns if the drug clashes with a recorded allergy.
  3. Set Outcome – returned to class, sent home, admitted to sick bay, or referred.
Important — Medication given to a minor must follow your school's consent policy. EduPrime records the consent flag on the health record; if consent is absent the form blocks dispensing of non-emergency medication.

Referrals & handover

If the student needs outside care, raise a Referral from the visit. Choose the destination (clinic, hospital, dentist, optician), add notes for the receiving clinician, and EduPrime can notify the parent and the house parent or class teacher of the absence – without exposing the clinical detail to them.

Tip — Close the visit before the student leaves the room. An open visit with no outcome is a gap in the record; the dashboard flags visits left open for more than the configured period.
