Blood Group

MANSOQ offers these blood group values: A Positive, A Negative, B Positive, B Negative, AB Positive, AB Negative, O Positive, O Negative, and Unknown.

Patient Identifiers

Your deployment configures the identifier types that MANSOQ shows. A facility can define its own identifier types, or the instance can define identifier types for all facilities. Each identifier type is required or optional. An identifier type can also check the format of the value that you enter.

Patient Tags

Administrators attach tags to a patient record. Tags are labels that help you group and find patient records.

Volunteer Contact

A facility assigns specific users, for example volunteers, to a patient. These users give field support to the patient. MANSOQ shows these users in the Volunteer Contact section of the patient profile.

Profile Sections

The patient profile holds these sections:

The profile also holds tabs for Encounters, Clinical History, Appointments, and Questionnaire Updates. Your permissions control which of these tabs you see. */}
