Medical certificates
Sick-leave notes, fitness-to-work letters and medical reports are issued and printed from the system instead of being hand-written. Each certificate is a tracked record with the patient, diagnosis, validity dates and the issuing clinician, and prints on the facility letterhead with a signature and stamp area.
Where to find it
- Public Health → Medical Certificates → Certificates (model
hms.medical.certificate).
Certificate types
| Type | Use |
|---|---|
| Sick Leave | Certifies the patient is unfit for duty/school and advises rest from/to a date (days auto-calculated). |
| Fitness to Work / School | States whether the patient is fit or not fit, with an effective date. |
| Medical Report | A free-form clinical report on the patient’s condition. |
| General Medical Certificate | A general-purpose certificate. |
Issuing & printing
Create the certificate, set the type, diagnosis and dates, then Issue it and use Print → Medical Certificate. The number of days is computed automatically from the from/to dates for sick-leave notes.
