Overview/Purpose
This protocol will display your local safeguarding information within a Protocol Alert for all children and any vulnerable adults
What does it do?
- Highlights the existence of safeguarding codes
- Displays information about the date of the latest instance of multiple categories of safeguarding and vulnerable groups of codes when a mouse hovers over the alert
- Loads a template to update safeguarding information when the alert is double clicked
Why is it important?
EMIS Web has a CP flag on the precis bar, but it is helpful to be aware of what is triggering the flag. This handy protocol also highlights a history of safeguarding in patients under the age of 25 where all episodes have ended and the CP flag removed, as the history may still be relevant.
