# Removing Notifications

1. Bring up the Patient Selection screen, either by launching CPRS or if you are already running CPRS, selecting File | Select New Patient.

2. Highlight the notifications that you want to remove.

Note: To select a number of notifications in a row, click the first item, hold down the Shift key, and click the last item. All items in the range will be selected. To select multiple items that are not in a row, click one, hold down the Control key, and click the other specific notifications.

Warning: Once you remove these notifications you cannot get them back. Be careful that you really want to remove or delete these notifications before you proceed.

3. Select Remove.

Note: A new parameter ORB REMOVE enables sites to specify which notifications can be removed in this way. If the notification is not removed, you will have to process the notification.
