Recording a Parent Contact in SynWeb Medical Maintenance
...
Student Sign-In: The student is signed in to the sickbay using SynWeb Medical Maintenance.
Accessing "Parent/Guardian Notifications":
The user navigates to the student's incident record in SynWeb Medical Maintenance.
They select "Add More Details" and then choose "Notifications" to access the parent contact recording section.
...
Viewing Available Contacts:
A dropdown list labelled "Parent / Guardian Contacted" displays a list of available contacts for the student.
The list is filtered to show relevant contacts marked as "Lives With" and prioritises those who are also "Primary".
Emergency contacts are also included in the list.
Key contact details are displayed alongside the contact's name.
If a previously saved contact is no longer eligible (e.g., they no longer "Live With" the student), their name will appear in the dropdown list in red, but selected.
Recording Contact Details:
The user selects the appropriate contact from the "Parent / Guardian Contacted" dropdown list.
They then choose the method of contact used: "Emailed", "Phoned", "SMS", or "Other".
If "Other" is selected, a text box appears for specifying the method used.
The user can add comments related to the contact in the provided "Comments" field. This field is mandatory.
Adding an Additional Contact:
If the user needs to record contact with another parent/guardian, they can select the "Additional Parent/Guardian Contacted" checkbox.
This reveals a second set of "Parent / Guardian Contacted" and "Contacted via" fields, allowing the user to record details for another contact.
Saving the Record:
Once the user has entered the necessary contact information, they click "Save".
This action saves all entered data, including the contact details, method of contact, comments, and whether an additional parent/guardian was contacted.
Viewing Recorded Information:
The recorded parent/guardian contact information is accessible in SynWeb Medical Maintenance under the student's incident record, within the "Notifications" section.
This information is also reflected in SynMain and in relevant Crystal Reports, such as the Student Medical Incident report (STUMEDINC).
