Set up a New Medical Problem

To set up a new Medical Problem record for a student, you begin within the Student Record.

Open the student’s record.
Locate the Medical Problem(s) section of the student record found on the main student record screen.
Click the “New Prob.” button in the lower right corner of the Medical Problem(s) section.

A new Medical Problem screen opens. Only the fields labeled in RED are required to save the problem:

Condition – select the medical condition from the list.
Status – select the status of the problem from the list.
‎“Active” problems are the ones that you track that have medical alerts and medical procedures associated to them. If this changes, you would adjust the status of the problem to “inactive” or “resolved”.

Below are some optional fields that help define the specific Medical Problem:
