Wound care: Your visits on your phone — the nurse's tour

The screens a nurse uses on their phone, one picture each: the day, a visit, the patient's need-to-know, the note, medicines, and reporting an incident. About ten minutes.

8 lessonsCorella’s own course, word for word, with pictures from its demo

  1. Lesson 1

    Start here

    This course walks through the screens a nurse uses on their phone, with a picture of each from Corella's demo, with made-up people.

    Open each one on your own phone as you go.

    It takes about ten minutes.

    The last step is three short questions.

  2. Lesson 2

    Today

    The day opens on Today: each visit with its time, the patient, the address, and Clock on.

    Clock on opens three hours before a visit starts and closes when it ends.

    Open visits you could pick up show at the top.

  3. Lesson 3

    A visit, before you start

    Open a visit to see its instructions and its tasks.

    A task marked Must do has to be ticked before you can clock off.

    Further down are the patient's emergency contacts and documents, and recent notes from the team.

  4. Lesson 4

    The patient's need-to-know

    Further down is the patient: how to reach them, and what the office has marked for nurses to know before they walk in — allergies, medical conditions, mobility.

    The patient's need-to-know
  5. Lesson 5

    Medicines on the visit

    When the patient has medicines, each one is on the visit.

    Tap what happened with the dose — Given, Refused or Missed — and it is recorded on this visit, with the time and your name, in their medication record.

    An as-needed medicine wears an As needed badge, and after you tap Given, Add follow-up records how it went.

    Medicines in a Webster pack are recorded once for each time of the pack — Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner or Bedtime.

  6. Lesson 6

    The note

    Write the note on the visit: what you did and what you saw.

    It is saved on this visit and in the patient's record, where the office reads it.

    The note
  7. Lesson 7

    Report an incident

    Anything that went wrong, nearly went wrong, or could: choose hazard, incident or near miss, say what happened, and send it.

    The coordination team is told straight away.

    From a visit, Report an incident is under Forms, and the report is linked to that visit.

    Choose the incident type — Medication error is one — and how serious it was, and say what you did straight away.
