MD-17

How this application works, and how to report something that does not.

Reporting anything — quote the screen number

Every screen carries a number in the top right: DK-05, MD-09. Quote it and the report lands on the right work without anybody having to describe what they were looking at. A number is permanent — it is never reassigned to a different screen.

What you did, what you expected, what happened instead. No patient names — quote the patient ID or the MRN instead.

Signing in

Staff sign in with their own Google account. CBS holds no password for you, which is why there is nowhere in this application to change one — there is nothing to change.

Access is a roll your hospital administrator keeps, on DK-24. Being added to it is what lets your Google account in; being turned off is what stops it, at the next sign-in, whoever holds the account. Anything you have already written keeps your name on it.

If sign-in is refused and you believe it should not be, the person to ask is your own administrator, not CBS.

The dots in the menu

A dot beside a menu item means the screen behind it is not finished, and hovering it says what is missing. This is deliberate: an item that opens a screen with nothing behind it should admit that in the menu rather than after the click.

  • No dot — the screen works and the API behind it checks who you are.
  • Amber — the screen works, but the permission it implies is not enforced by the server.
  • Grey — there is no endpoint yet. The screen says what is missing.
  • Red — it cannot be built yet, and the screen says what has to exist first.

Getting around faster

  • Ctrl K opens the go-to box and searches every destination in the menu.
  • Escape closes whatever is open — the box, then the menu drawer.
  • The language picker in the top bar changes the whole application and is remembered on this device. Nine languages ship.
  • On a phone the four buttons along the bottom are the ones used most; everything else is under More.

Patient data, briefly

Every read of a patient record is logged with who did it and why — including a read made from this application. The log holds identifiers and never names, and an administrator can see it on DK-25.

Consent is recorded per purpose, so a patient who agreed to treatment has not thereby agreed to reminders or to research use. Do not put a patient's name into a support report, a ticket, or anything else that leaves the record.
