Closing a Patient Record

You can close a patient record in different ways. You can either close the record and exit CPRS completely or select a new patient record, which automatically closes the record you are in.

To close the patient record and exit CPRS, use one of the following:

·     Select File | Exit.

·     Click the close box (x) in the upper right corner of the CPRS window.

Note:      If you have just entered unsigned orders or notes, a screen will pop up asking you to sign the orders.

To simultaneously close the current patient record and select a new patient, see Opening a Patient Record. If you follow those steps, you will close the current patient record when you open a new patient.
