You can record an infection observation at any time from a resident’s profile. Each entry forms part of the continuous infection record in the web application. The infection review is automatically scheduled based on the information you enter, helping staff respond quickly and monitor changes over time.
📌 Note: The infection chart is fully client‑configurable. You can add custom fields and adapt the chart to your organisation’s needs. All infection data feeds into the reporting tools within the web application.
